An award known informally as the "alternative Nobel Prize" will this year honor women and women-led organizations working to challenge systems that marginalize people, according to Euronews en Español.
Four recipients will be selected from among 200 nominations submitted from 72 countries, with the award ceremony set to take place on December 1 in Stockholm, the report said.
The report did not name the specific recipients or provide further detail on the criteria used to select them, nor did it specify the organization presenting the award beyond describing it as an alternative to the Nobel Prize.
Awards of this kind have historically recognized grassroots activism and work on human rights, environmental protection and social justice issues that organizers say are sometimes overlooked by more prominent international prizes.
