Submissions invited for 2015 Ockenden International Prize
Ockenden International has launched its third annual call for entries and announced an increase in prize money to $100,000 for the International Prize and $25,000 for two runners-up.
The cash prizes recognize and reward innovative work that delivers evidential self-reliance to refugees and/or internally displaced people (IDPs). The Ockenden Prizes honour projects that foster and successfully instil self-reliance, the hallmark of Ockenden International since its inception more than 60 years ago.
Submissions for the $100,000 International Prize must be from organizations operating internationally, registered as charities, which can also elect to nominate a project by a registered partner or affiliate organization. There are no geographical limits on the locations of submitted projects but the judges will be looking for work initiated no earlier than May 2011 and for evidence of properly-measured and evaluated outcomes. Deadline for entries is midnight (GMT) on Friday, 31 July 2014. The finalists will be announced in November.
