The UCLG Peace Prize 2026 has received an impressive global response, with over 80 applications submitted from local and regional governments around the world.
The Technical Evaluation Committee is currently in the process of carefully reviewing all submissions. This includes a thorough assessment of the initiatives, their impact, and their contribution to promoting peace, dialogue, and inclusion at the local level.
The Committee has expressed its appreciation for the remarkable quality and diversity of the applications. The initiatives received reflect a wide range of innovative and inspiring approaches to building peaceful and resilient communities, often in complex and challenging contexts.
We look forward to sharing more updates in the coming weeks as the evaluation process progresses.
