Student Peace Prize Awarded by the International Student Festival in Trondheim, Norway (ISFiT) 2007

Please take a few minutes to learn about the only Peace Prize in the
world to and from students.

The Student Peace Prize is to be awarded for the fifth time during the
International Student Festival in Trondheim, Norway (ISFiT) 2007. The prize is
awarded every second year on behalf of all Norwegian students, and is
the only peace prize in the world to and from students. In giving this
prize we wish to highlight the important role of students in the
struggle for peace, democracy and human rights. Students efforts are
widely underestimated, even though students often have the ability and
opportunity to think differently, and thus to create a more peaceful
world. Awarding the Peace Prize helps to get support and recognition
for idealist students who work for peace and basic rights. The Peace
Prize receives nominations from all over the world, and we make a
tremendous effort to learn about good candidates. The nominee must be a
student or a student organization who or which has made an outstanding
contribution to peace, democracy or human rights.

A committee consisting of students and prominent persons in Norwegian
politics and society chooses the winner of the Student Peace Prize
2007. The recipient receives an invitation to come to Norway to accept
the prize at the Peace Prize Ceremony during ISFiT 2007, and will also
travel throughout Norway to meet with important organizations and
decision makers.

Previous winners have met with the Norwegian Prime Minister, the
Minister of Development and the crown prince Haakon Magnus, to name a
few. The media is very attentive to the Peace Prize and its winners.
Receiving this prize is a unique opportunity to make contacts, increase
media awareness and spread knowledge about oneself and the situation in
one's home country.
