Deadline: 30th April 2023 | Annual awards for creative and courageous rural women leaders and groups that help to advance and improve the quality of life in rural communities. To date, 476 prizes have been awarded in over 140 countries to selected candidates.

They need our solidarity support as they face many challenges in today’s world.
