Tony Westwood is an Australian citizen, qualified teacher, management coach, language trainer, grandfather several times over and can look back on an international dance career spanning more than 25 years. His success story began in Heidelberg, but not in Baden-Württemberg, but in Heidelberg on the other side of the world. Heidelberg, formerly an independent municipality, is now a suburb of the capital Melbourne in the Australian state of Victoria. It was there that Tony Westwood was born in 1954.
It was clear early on that "Tony" would conquer the boards of the world. In 2023, after almost 25 years of "tolerated residence" in Germany, he returned for a Short trip back to his home country. The mission, his motivation: visit family members while they are still alive, scan potential Health:Angels, such as the WESTWOOD MEDICAL CENTER in Melbourne, talke with Kylie Mignore about their own non-alcoholic rosé and don't forget the Adelaide Festival of Arts, which accelerated your own dance career.
Right of proposal
In principle, ambassadors, sponsors, award winners or supporters of the Health Media Award have the right to nominate candidates. The selection process takes place digitally and in a select group of experts from the health and communications industry. In order to ensure the greatest possible neutrality and independence of the honorary jurors when selecting the award winners, it is planned that the applications received digitally will be made available to the jurors on demand with the help of a CRM system. In justified individual cases, the most promising candidates who can win a Health:Angel can be invited to a live public presentation (elevator pitch) or video conference in front of the honorary grand jury. The Health:Angel is awarded in a small circle at the respective winner's home or at an Award Night.
Team Westwood
Since the competition was established in 2008, numerous personalities and experts have volunteered to help select the best health communicators.
