Join us for the 12th annual award ceremony luncheon for the Osborn Elliott Prize for Excellence in Journalism, honoring the 2015 winners Rakteem Katakey, Tom Lasseter, and Rajesh Kumar Singh of Bloomberg News. Selected by an independent jury, the winning stories chronicle the dire health consequences of uranium and coal mining in India for some of its poorest citizens, against a broader narrative about India’s quest for growth and lax environmental regulation and enforcement.

The award presentation by Jury Chair Marcus Brauchli will be followed by a conversation with special guest/moderator George Stephanopoulos, Chief Anchor, ABC News on Asia’s biggest stories of the year.
