The Television Academy has announced the recipients of its 16th Television Academy Honors. The honorees include two documentary specials, one documentary/nonfiction series, two scripted series and one reality series from 2022.

Each year, Television Academy Honors celebrates programs that raise awareness about complex issues facing society. This year’s honorees produced compelling programs that address neurodiversity; civil rights; LGBTQ+ rights; equal rights for women; the experience of immigrants and refugees; and racism, xenophobia and antisemitism. “These exceptional programs and producers have used television to adeptly address some of the most significant and challenging issues facing communities across the globe,” said Television Academy Chairman and CEO Frank Scherma. “Our medium is incredibly powerful, and these six programs have leveraged it to inspire transformational change.”  The Honors recipients will be celebrated during a recognition ceremony slated for May 31.
