History and details

Kōki Mitani, 2023 winner

The Juzo Itami Award was established in March 2009, twelve years after Itami's death, with the help of his wife, Nobuko Miyamoto.[2] Originally focusing on excellence in literary expression in odd-numbered years and visual expression in even-numbered years, its two categories were unified and its cadence changed to yearly in 2011.

In 2013, journalist Akira Ikegami donated his entire monetary award to the World Food Programme.[3]
