The New Statesman New Media Awards aim to recognise those that realise the potential of new media technology and have the commitment and stamina to effectively execute their ideas. The award categories, which vary from year to year, suitably reflect this goal.

The award categories are:

* Democracy in action
* Inform and educate
* Community activism
* Campaign for change
* Innovation
