Nominations are invited form individuals and organizations worldwide for the Islamic Development Bank (IDB) Prize for Women’s Contribution to Development. The IDB Prize was established in 2006 to draw international attention to the vital role women play in developing their communities and the world. The Prize aims to RECOGNIZE, ENCOURAGE, INSPIRE and REWARD women’s participation in the socio-economic development process.

  2. U.S. $ 100,000 for an organization

The Prize is awarded during the Annual Meeting of the IDB Board of Governors.
