The World Today was an early morning news and current affairs radio programme on the BBC World Service, launched in 1999, and broadcast from 3:00 to 8:30 (GMT) daily as of 2011. It consisted of news bulletins on the hour and half-hour, serious international interviews and in-depth reports of world news. The World Service considered it one of their most important strands, and in 2009 the programme won the News and Current Affairs Award at the Sony Radio Academy Awards. The judges noted that the programme "bubbled over with stories of real life from around the globe" and that "the compassion, respect and understanding the programme had for every contributor shone through every minute of the competition entry."
Both The World Today and its fellow news programme Network Africa ended in 2012, when they were replaced by a new BBC World Service programme entitled Newsday.
