In January 2021, Majalat launched its mobile journalism competition for journalists, activists, and amateurs working in the fields of content creation and journalistic work from Algeria, Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, Morocco, Palestine, Syria, Libya and Tunisia.

Applicants were asked to submit video reports on the following topics:

The second jury, made up of renowned experts in mobile journalism from southern countries, examined the technical aspects of the videos (the originality and innovation of the covered subject, the angle of presentation, image quality, sound, and translation).
