The GCSP Prize for Transformative Futures in Peace and Security

Under the leadership of Ambassador Thomas Greminger, Executive Director of the GCSP, the Prize for Transformative Futures in Peace and Security was initiated by Professor Nayef Al-Rodhan, Director of the Geopolitics and Global Futures Department, and Ms Anne-Caroline Pissis Martel, Director of the Global Fellowship Initiative and Creative Spark. 

It seeks to reward ground-breaking concepts that offer exceptional promise in addressing peace- and security-related challenges. The inaugural edition of the prize was first awarded in 2023. The prize for the winning project is a fully funded two-month incubation programme with the GCSP’s Creative Spark in Geneva (worth CHF 15,000) and a certificate of excellence.
