CDU to Award "Civil Courage Prize"
A Revolutionary Award for Champions of the Common Good
A groundbreaking award is on the horizon, acknowledging individuals and institutions that have truly made a difference in our society. This upcoming award, set to be named the "Courage in Civil Society Award," has been proposed by the CDU municipal council faction.
In a statement, the faction declared their intentions: "We aim to recognize those who have demonstrated courageous action for the common good - individuals, groups, or initiatives that go above and beyond, truly embodying the spirit of community and our democratic values."
Frank J. Lemke, deputy faction leader of the CDU, further explained, "In these times when community and democratic values matter more than ever, it's essential to shine a spotlight on individual courage. By bestowing this award, we can celebrate and foster commitment and accountability towards others."
The award ceremony will be held annually, with deserving citizens being honored as exemplary role models within the community. Anyone can submit a nomination, from citizens to associations to institutions. An independent jury will then make the selection.
The award, although its specifics remain undisclosed, is expected to be funded through either the municipal budget or with support from local sponsors. A non-monetary distinction, such as a certificate or medal, is planned for recipients.
Though the CDU municipal council faction has not yet established the award, we can draw from typical award practices for insight into its potential structure.
