Thomson Reuters has received nominations for two ambitious multimedia journalism projects as part of the second France 24 - RFI Web Documentary Award.

'Times of Crisis' and 'Surviving the Tsunami: Stories of Hope' will compete against seven other interactive, multimedia journalism projects from France and Italy for the €8,000 prize.

Documenting the 365 days after the collapse of Lehman Brothers in 2008, Times of Crisis created an interactive timeline of text, videos and images. 'Surviving the Tsunami' was created by the Thomson Reuters Foundation and MediaStorm and combined videos and interactive maps to show the impact of the 2004 disaster.

French newspaper Le Monde has won two nominations in the awards, which are being run for the second time this year, for 'The trees of Kilimanjaro' and 'Africacopie: Africa in the digital revolution'.

A full list of nominees is available on the awards website. The winner will be announced on 1 September.
