Congratulations to The Age photographer Penny Stephens and team for their UN Media Award winning multimedia project, The Vanishing Island. This week, The Age's Adam Morton, Penny Stephens and Marija Ercegovac were named winners of the 2016 UN Association of Australia World Environment Day Media Award.
The Vanishing Island looks at the story of Taro Island in the Solomon Islands, perhaps the first provincial capital in the world to be abandoned because of the impacts of climate change.
