“It’s a great honour to receive an award with this kind of prestige. It’s very affirming and very encouraging, and it comes at a moment when there’s a lot of uncertainty, a lot of anxiety about our efforts to achieve justice in America.” (Bryan Stevenson, USA, 2020 Laureate)
The Right Livelihood Award, presented annually since 1980, recognises the actions of brave visionaries and aims to boost urgent and long-term social change. We do not apply any special categories – the world is complex and interconnected. Human rights, health, environment, peace, culture, sustainable development, and justice are just some of the examples of issues addressed by our 182 Laureates from 72 countries.
