First Recipient of the Alexei Navalny Prize Announced

The inaugural Alexei Navalny Prize has been awarded to Zaodno, a peer-to-peer crowdfunding platform.

It’s important not to feel alone. To know you’re not powerless. That others are with you. That’s what real civil society is—the kind Alexei believed in. And it will change everything.

The award ceremony will take place on June 28 in Berlin during the Alexei Navalny memorial concert.

Beginning this year, the Alexei Navalny Prize will be awarded annually to individuals or organisations who stand up for freedom, justice, and a peaceful Russia.
