About the Award

The Waislitz Global Citizen Award, an annual cash prize of $100,000 presented by Alex Waislitz and Global Citizen, recognizes the excellence of one individual in their work to end extreme poverty.

Criteria

Recipients are selected based on individual merit in four key areas:

  • Global citizenship: how does the nominee embody and exemplify the values and practices of a Global Citizen?
  • Impact: what is the nominee’s track record of reducing extreme poverty?
  • Innovation: how has the nominee brought new thinking to overcoming the challenge of ending extreme poverty?
  • Potential: How would this award enable/support the nominee to scale or improve their work? How would the nominee use the funding?

About the Application

You will submit a three-minute video and 500-word essay that tell us about you and your work. Your submission should address the questions below:

  • Who are you? Introduce yourself and your team.
  • What are you doing? Tell us how you are working to reduce extreme poverty and how your work is different.
  • How is your work innovative? Does the work you’re doing tackle a particular problem in a different way than done previously? Is your solution sustainable?
  • What inspired you to take action? Tell us how you got the idea for your work and your successes (or opportunities).
  • What's your impact? Lay out a clear specific timeline, plan and metrics for success. What are your goals? Who are you positively affecting? How are you reaching them? How will the Waislitz Global Citizen Award help you achieve your goals?
