The Taiwan Foundation for Democracy (TFD) is calling for nominations for the 17th Asia Democracy and Human Rights Award (ADHRA) 2022!
The 2022 Asia Democracy and Human Rights Award will recognize one individual or organization that has made concrete and significant contributions to the advancement of democracy and human rights in Asia through peaceful means. The laureate will have demonstrated a long-term commitment to the cause of freedom in the region.
There was no award recognizing efforts in developing or sustaining democracy and human rights in Asia until 2006. As the first national democracy assistance foundation in Asia, the TFD established the ADHRA — the first democracy and human rights award in Asia — to support courageous individuals and groups who build democracy, stand up for justice, and defend human rights.
The ADHRA is annually awarded to one individual or organization that has made significant contributions to the advancement of democracy or human rights in Asia through peaceful means.
What does the 17th ADHRA consist of?
- The laureate will be awarded a US$100,000 grant and award at an official ceremony in Taipei on Dec. 10, International Human Rights Day.
Eligibility Criteria
- Anyone can nominate an individual or organization for the 17th AHDRA.
- Nominations are open to the public. Each nominee must be nominated in writing by at least two credible organizations or individuals from the field of democracy or human rights.
