(UPDATES) STOCKHOLM — The Right Livelihood Award was given Thursday to three activists from the Palestinian territories, the Philippines, and Mozambique and to a UK pioneering research agency who “have each made a profound impact on their communities and the global stage.”
“Their unwavering commitment to speaking out against forces of oppression and exploitation, while strictly adhering to non-violent methods, resonates far beyond their communities,” the Stockholm-based foundation said about the laureates. It considered 176 nominees from 72 countries this year.
