KAPSKÉ MĚSTO, Jihoafrická republika, 22. listopadu 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Komise Ceny míru Sunhak oznámila laureáty Ceny míru Sunhak pro rok 2019 – paní Waris Dirie a Dr. Akinwumi Ayodeji Adesinu.

Waris Dirie, aktivistka za lidská práva a supermodelka, je všeobecně uznávána za zvyšování celosvětového povědomí o ženské obřízce (FGM). Dr. Akinwumi Adesina, zemědělský ekonom, prosazuje v Africe dobrou správu v oblasti zemědělských inovací již více než 30 let a výrazně přispívá k potravinové bezpečnosti v Africe.

Waris Dirie se narodila v nomádské rodině, ženskou obřízku (FGM) prodělala ve věku 5 let. V roce 1997 se o své zkušenosti podělila s celým světem a byla jmenována zvláštním velvyslancem v OSN pro odstranění FGM.

V roce 2002 založila Nadaci Desert Flower a v roce 2003 její kampaň proti ženské obřízce přivedla 15 členských zemí Africké unie k ratifikaci protokolu Maputo, který podporuje eradikaci ženské obřízky. V roce 2012 OSN jednomyslně schválila rezoluci zakazující provádění ženské obřízky a stanovila cíl eliminovat FGM do roku 2030.

Další laureát Dr. Akinwumi Adesina byl průkopníkem rozšíření produkce rýže, zvýšil dostupnost úvěrů pro drobné zemědělce, přilákal soukromé investice do zemědělského sektoru, eliminoval korupční prvky v průmyslu hnojiv a zavedl pravidla zemědělské politiky.

Během Afrického summitu o hnojivech v roce 2006 se významnou měrou zasloužil o vypracování deklarace Abuja o hnojivech pro africkou zelenou revoluci, ve které byla stanovena eradikace hladu v Africe do roku 2030.

Dr. Akinwumi Adesina v současné době působí jako prezident skupiny Africké rozvojové banky a podporuje strategii „High 5", která zlepšuje životy milionů lidí v celé Africe.

Dr. Il Sik Hong, předseda komise Sunhak, uvedl, že „Cena míru Sunhak je založena na vizi Jedna rodina pod Bohem a Cena míru Sunhak za rok 2019 věnuje zvláštní pozornost lidským právům a lidskému rozvoji v Africe."

Cena míru Sunhak vyznamenává jednotlivce a organizace, které významně přispěly k míru a blahu budoucích generací. Cena míru Sunhak zahrnuje peněžní odměnu ve výši jednoho milionu USD. Slavnostní vyhlášení laureátů se uskuteční 11. února 2019 v Soulu v Koreji.
