ABOUT

 

THE PIECE PRIZe

The PIECE PRIZE is a humanitarian award to recognise individuals/organisations who are actively involved in making neighbourhoods, communities and cities a peaceful place through acts of genuine kindness and caring.

Recipients of the award show a strong “caring attitude,” reaching across ethnic or cultural barriers to assist people to find their place in society.

WHY

We live in a divided world - a complex situation (political, cultural, ethnic and religion). 

The shared sense of community is at risk - integration becomes disintegration and disintegration is a threat to civil society. 

Requires action - not only by governments and global charitable organisations, but by individuals acting locally.

KEY OBJECTIVES

  • To inspire individuals to make a difference in their local communities and cities.
  • To foster mutual respect for one another, regardless of faith, traditions and cultures.
  • Generate a 21st century mindset that a peaceful world starts with “me” and requires the effort of many individuals.
