UNESCO has launched a call for nominations for the UNESCO-IPDC Prize for Rural Communication.

Potential submitters are invited to propose nominations in consultation with the National Commissions for UNESCO or with relevant non-governmental organizations maintaining consultative relations with UNESCO.
