Mr. Łukasz Walewski is awarded for broadcasting four live reports on Zagreb and Plitvice Lakes in late August and early September 2011, within the very popular radio series "Zapraszamy do trojkl" on Polish Radio 3. These programs portrayed the lifestyle and atmosphere of Zagreb and the beauty of the Plitvice Lakes to the Polish listeners. The author interviewed the residents of Zagreb and asked them what they think of the European Union. He also spoke with numerous foreign tourists, among whom were Poles who had been living in Zagreb. Many Polish tourists took part in reporting back from the lakes, describing the impressions of their holiday in Croatia. Since 2008 Łukasz Walewski has constantly held the position of a political reporter in Poland and abroad, as well as being a presenter on Polish Radio 3.
