The Anthem Awards was launched in response to the prevalence social good has taken within the national conversation and cultural zeitgeist in recent years. This year, the competition received nearly 2,000 entries from 43 countries worldwide by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences (IADAS). By amplifying the voices that spark global change, the Anthem Awards are defining a new benchmark for impactful work that inspires others to take action in their communities. A portion of program revenue will fund a new grant program supporting emerging individuals and organizations, working to advance the causes recognized in the 2nd Annual Anthem Awards.

Along with The Special Report With Areva Martin, other winners include Gloria Steinem, Billy Porter, Amanda Gorman, Civic Nation, John Stewart; plus, change-making non-profit organizations and foundations, working to create change.

"Since launching this platform in June of 2021, we have seen that social change has emerged as a dominant force in mainstream culture," said Anthem Awards Managing Director Jessica Lauretti. "The sheer number, breadth and overall quality of the entries shared with us in the 2nd annual awards is a testament to the strength of this growing movement and demonstrates an enduring commitment to the work that is both humbling and inspiring to see. From the war in Ukraine, to protests in Iran and the ongoing battle for equality here at home in the States, the call for change not only perseveres but is a growing global chorus."

"Giving birth should be safe and joyous for everyone, but Black women are more than three times likely to die from childbirth than white women," stated Martin.  "We are thrilled to have our episode on 'Black Maternal Health' win Silver in competition of the 2nd Annual Anthem Awards. The Special Report production team has spent countless hours producing powerful programming that spotlights social injustice in America to encourage social and systemic change. Every day at the Special Needs Network in Los Angeles, we live the values of diversity, equity and inclusion. This award recognizes our work."
