About the Gulbenkian Prize for Humanity
Worth €1 million, the Gulbenkian Prize for Humanity was established by the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in 2019 with the purpose of distinguishing people, groups of people or organisations from all over the world who have demonstrated their commitment in tackling the climate crisis and whose contributions to mitigation and adaptation stand out for their originality, innovation and impact.
This initiative underscores the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation’s commitment to urgent climate action and strengthens its contribution to the transition to a carbon-neutral society that is more resilient and better prepared society for future global change.
