The NCMG Special Recognition Award is a specialized award category which primarily honors individuals with a track record of exemplary leadership, selfless service and commitment to the overall improvement of humanity. Awardees in this category are carefully selected for the impact which their selflessness and passion has brought towards meaningful change in the larger society. The NCMG Special Recognition Award is not open to nominations but the result of thorough research and deliberations by the Peace Awards Committee who then present their selected candidates to the panel of Judges for consideration while the ultimate approval lies with the NCMG Global Board of Governors.
