United Nations Peace Prize (failed)

In recognition and acknowledgement of those who strive to create greater world harmony and understanding, the Kingdom of Pax Romantica proposes the creation of a United Nations Peace Prize.
This Prize will be awarded annually to that individual, organization, group or nation that has done the most to further the cause of peace in the world, be it through politics, science, or the arts.
This Prize will bestow gratitude, honour and prestige upon the recipient from the world community. Additional benefits and privileges may be determined and added later.
The award process may be formalized in a number of ways, but the Kingdom of Pax Romantica recommends:
- Nominations of potential recipients with sufficient explanation put forth by a given date each year by UN members.
- A period of review of nominees and discussion of merits.
- A brief period of voting to end on a given date by UN members, the nominee receiving the majority of the votes then being awarded the Prize.
- The convocation of the UN to witness the presentation of the Peace Prize during an annual ceremony befitting the prestige of the award.
Peacemakers often labour beneath the radar of international attention. Let us reward and encourage these labours for the betterment of the world.
