KUALA LUMPUR, April 22 (Bernama) -- Henley & Partners, an international residence and citizenship advisory firm, in collaboration with the Swiss-based Andan Foundation, is now accepting nominations for the 2025 Global Citizen Award, open until June 30.
“Each of our Global Citizen Award recipients has moved us with their courage to tackle challenges many consider overwhelming. Today’s global issues go far beyond individual communities or nations. More than ever, it is essential to support those who are actively creating meaningful change in the lives of vulnerable communities worldwide.
“The committee is looking for remarkable and inspirational individuals who demonstrate vision, courage, and innovation in driving global change and whose actions and outlook contribute to a more just, peaceful, connected, and tolerant world,” said Henley & Partners Chairman and Andan Foundation Founder, Dr Christian H. Kaelin in a statement.
The 2025 laureate will be selected by a distinguished, independent committee and honoured at the Global Citizen Award ceremony, a gala evening event which forms part of the annual Henley & Partners Global Citizenship Conference taking place at The Dorchester, London, from Nov 2 to 4.
The award includes a bespoke sculptural medal designed by Italian artist Antonio Nocera, an award certificate signed by the Chairman of the Global Citizen Award Committee, and a monetary prize of US$20,000, which goes towards supporting the awardee’s humanitarian efforts. (US$1 = RM4.35)
In addition, Henley & Partners commits to working closely with the awardee for a period of one year, raising awareness of their work and supporting the selected project through the firm’s network of more than 60 offices worldwide.
Honouring remarkable individuals, previous recipients include German entrepreneur Harald Höppner, who set up the refugee humanitarian aid project Sea Watch; Dr Imtiaz Sooliman, Founder of the Gift of the Givers Foundation, Africa’s largest disaster relief organisation; and Monique Morrow, Co-Founder of The Humanized Internet.
