Lay Down Your Arms awards its annual prize to the United Nations special rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories – as the person who, in accordance with Alfred Nobel’s will, has “done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations and for the abolition or reduction of standing armies as well as for the holding and promotion of peace congresses.”

Francesca Albanese [who is a nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize] has forcefully and unwaveringly worked against Israel’s full-scale war on the occupied Palestinian territories, in particular Israel´s ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people.

She has confronted Israel’s systematic war crimes and crimes against humanity in a truly global outreach.

Further, she has brought governments, international organisations and people’s groups together to underline the responsibility of the world at large to act and to stop arming, enabling, and profiting from Israel’s ongoing criminal actions.

But first of all, Albanese has lifted up the very core of the United Nations’ Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide for all member states to act to prevent and punish those who are perpetrating, complicit in and profiting from these atrocious crimes, and not merely to passively await a possible future verdict in international courts.

Francesca Albanese has proven herself to be an exceptionally worthy and true “champion for peace.”

The award consists of a diploma with a print by Mai-Bente Bonnevie, titled “Gaza” and a cheque for Euro 10,000. A prize ceremony will be held at a later date. Ms Albanese has informed Lay Down Your Arms that she will donate the prize money to a charity that she will announce at a later date.


Etc.
