Global Pluralism Award 2022 for Pluralism Champions ($150,000 prize)
Application Deadline: May 31, 2022
The Global Pluralism Award was born out of the reality that building inclusive societies requires great effort but often comes with little recognition or support. The Award recognizes and supports individuals, organizations, governments, and other entities that are tackling the challenge of living peacefully and productively with diversity. It aims to celebrate those who are working towards a world where differences are valued and diverse societies prosper.
Three Award winners will be selected by an independent, international jury of experts. Each recipient will receive a prize of $50,000 CAD as well as in-kind support from the Global Centre for Pluralism.

• Individuals (e.g., artists, journalists, academics, policy-makers, filmmakers, etc.);

• Social enterprises;
• Corporations (public or private);

• Local/municipal, regional or federal/ national branches or agencies of government.
Prizes
- Three Award winners will share a total prize pool of CAD $150,000. The monetary prize will be equally divided among the three Award
winners (CAD $50,000 each). - In late 2023, each of the three Award winners and up to seven honourable mention recipients, or their delegates, will be invited to
