Category "Individual" 5th edition 2021-2022
This category will recognise an internationally renowned individual who has made a fundamental contribution to cultural rights, to the relationship between culture and sustainable development and/or to the presence of culture as an important part of the caring system in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. The Individual award will be designated by the Jury, without an open competition process.
The organisers invite all the members of UCLG (direct or indirect), as well as other interested individuals and organisations, to make a spontaneous nomination of a personality by using the nomination form created for this purpose, and emailing it to cultureaward@uclg.org.
The nomination shall be duly motivated, stating explicitly the contribution of the personality concerned in the context of the crisis, as well as, more broadly, to the understanding of the relation existing between culture and sustainable development, including the promotion of cultural rights and/or the connection between culture and the SDGs (UN 2030 Agenda) or the New Urban Agenda.
