The 2024 Sydney Peace Prize
This year the Sydney Peace Foundation will award the Sydney Peace Prize to the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement for courageous and highly regarded humanitarian work that serves our common humanity. In a year marking the 75th anniversary of the adoption of the 1949 Geneva Conventions, and amid unprecedented challenges to respect for international humanitarian law, the work of the global Movement is as important as it has ever been.
Chief Executive Officer and Secretary General of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, Jagan Chapagain, will be in Sydney to receive the award at an award ceremony at Sydney Town Hall on Monday, 18 November. The Gala Dinner is on Thursday, 21 November.
