Ferrie won the agenda setter category, recognising her work in leading the Addy in editorial campaigns and issues, and leadership within the broader Bendigo community.
Australian Community Media Victoria managing editor Andrew Eales said the award was recognition of not Ferrie's work but her leadership within the media industry and the community.
"The Addy is recognised as a thought-leader in the wider Bendigo community and the role of the local masthead in this respect has never been more important,” he said.
“This award is appropriate recognition of Nicole’s leadership."
