2008 Stockholm Water Prize Laureate to be Announced on March 19
The 2008 Stockholm Water Prize Laureate will be announced on Wednesday, March 19. Information will be available at www.siwi.org on that day.
The Stockholm Water Prize is a global award founded in 1990 and presented annually to an individual, organisation or institution for outstanding water-related activities. The activities can be within fields like education and awareness-raising, human and international relations, research, water management and water-related aid.
The Stockholm Water Prize Laureate receives USD 150,000 along with a glass sculpture, which will be presented during the 2008 World Water Week in Stockholm, August 17-23. H.M. King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden is the Patron of the Stockholm Water Prize.
Stockholm Water Prize Laureates have over the years represented many water-related activities, professions and scientific disciplines and have come from around the world. Any activity or actor which contributes broadly to the conservation and protection of the world’s water resources, and to improved water conditions which contribute to the health of the planet’s inhabitants and our ecosystems, is eligible to be nominated for the Stockholm Water Prize.
