US PEACE PRIZE NOMINATION PROCESS
The US Peace Memorial Foundation awards
the US Peace Prize to recognize and honor
the most outstanding and prominent American antiwar leaders. These courageous people
and organizations have publicly championed peaceful solutions to international
conflicts involving the U.S. and/or opposed U.S. war(s), militarism, and interventions
including invasion, occupation, production and
distribution of weapons of mass destruction, use of weapons, threats of war, or
other hostile actions that endanger peace. We
celebrate these extraordinary role models to inspire other Americans to speak
out against war and work for peace.
1. Those qualified to make a nomination are previous recipients of the US
Peace Prize, people and
organizations currently honored in the US Peace Registry, and Founding Members of the US Peace
Memorial Foundation. Nominations
are accepted between
January and the end of April each year.
2. Each qualified
nominator may make one nomination
annually. To be considered for the US Peace Prize, the nominee must: (a) be a U.S. Citizen,
permanent resident, or organization; (b) have up-to-date and documented antiwar/peace
activities in the US Peace Registry; and (c) be active and prominent in antiwar/peace
work within the 16 months before April 30 of the nomination year.
3. Please submit the
name of your US Peace Prize nominee to info@USPeaceMemorial.org by April 30. Include your nominee’s contact information (email and/or phone number) so
we may directly notify the individual or organization of the nomination.
4. The US Peace Memorial Foundation’s Board of Directors makes the final decision for awarding the
US Peace Prize. Information
published in the US Peace Registry is the only data
considered by the Board of Directors when making the selection. If you
would like to nominate a person or organization not included in the US Peace Registry, please request that
they submit their antiwar/peace activities for consideration by completing
an Individual or Organization application form
before April 30. Nominees already listed
in the US Peace Registry should review and update their information by sending
proposed changes and additions to Registry@USPeaceMemorial.org.
