Description
1) Objective
The Dan David Prize recognizes and encourages innovative and interdisciplinary research that cuts across traditional boundaries and paradigms. It aims to foster universal values of excellence, creativity, justice, democracy and progress and to promote the scientific, technological and humanistic achievements that advance and improve the world. The Dan David Prize covers three time dimensions – Past, Present and Future – that represent realms of human achievement.
Each year the International Board chooses one field within each time dimension. Following a review process by independent Review Commitees comprised of renowned scholars and professionals, the International Board then chooses the laureates for each field. The Past refers to fields that expand knowledge of former times. The Present recognizes achievements that shape and enrich society today. Future focuses on breakthroughs that hold great promise for improvement of the world.
2) Eligibility
The prizes are granted to individuals or institutions with proven, exceptional, distinct excellence in the sciences, arts, humanities, public service and business, that have made and continue to make an outstanding contribution to humanity on the basis of merit, without discrimination of gender, race, religion, nationality, or political affiliation.
3) Location
Actions can take place worldwide.
4) Budget
They will award up to nine prizes of $300,000 each year to outstanding early-and-mid-career scholars and practitioners in the historical disciplines. The remaining $300,000 will fund a program for international and Israeli postdoctoral fellows at Tel Aviv University. The Prize is endowed by the Dan David Foundation and headquartered at Tel Aviv University.
