The WISE Prize for Education raises the status of education by giving it similar prestige enjoyed in other areas for which international recognition exists –such as literature, peace, and economics. The WISE Prize for Education Laureates are inspiring role models for all those dedicated to building the future of education as the foundation for a more secure, prosperous, and sustainable world. To learn more about the WISE Prize Laureates please visit the Laureates by year page.
The WISE Prize for Education recognizes an individual, or a team of up to six, for an outstanding contribution to education.
