  • [01] Pourgourides elected member of Vaclav Havel Human Rights Prize Panel

    Former Member of the House of Representatives Christos Pourgourides, Lifetime Member of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, was elected member of the newly launched Václav Havel Human Rights Prize, which aims to reward outstanding civil society action in the defence of human rights in Europe and beyond.

    The prize, to be awarded each year by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), in partnership with the Václav Havel Library and the Charta 77 Foundation, is open to nominations from any individual, non-governmental organisation or institution working to defend human rights, and will be worth €60 000.

    The selection panel is made up of the President of PACE and six independent figures known for their high moral standing and expertise in the field of human rights.

    The Prize will be awarded at a ceremony during the autumn PACE plenary session in October in Strasbourg. The Václav Havel Library will then organise an international conference in Prague in honour of the prizewinner`s contribution to promoting human rights.
