The Student Peace Prize
The Student Peace Prize was established in 1999 – as an initiative by volunteers from the International Student Festival in Trondheim (ISFiT). It is awarded biannually to a student or student organization working to promote peace, human rights and democracy. The prize is awarded on behalf of all students in Norway, while an independent Student Peace Prize Committee makes the selection itself. The election happens through the independent committee for the Student Peace Prize, while the award itself, takes place during ISFiT’s own award ceremony.
