Greta Thunberg and Divina Maloum receive 15th International Children’s Peace Prize
The International Children’s Peace Prize has another first this year. Last year, for the first time, the prize was awarded not to an individual, but to a collective (March For Our Lives). This year, there are two different winners. Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg (16) and peace activist Divina Maloum (15) will today receive the prize from Nobel Peace Prize recipient and human rights advocate Kailash Satyarthi. Greta will not attend the ceremony, but Divina will. The prize is awarded annually to a young person who fights courageously for children’s rights.
