This year, we welcome the Norwegian Refugee Council into the Hilton Prize Laureate community.

Founded in 1946, the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) works to protect the rights of people who are displaced by violence and find themselves in extreme vulnerability during crisis. Operating in more than 35 countries around the world, NRC actively seeks to understand the challenges people affected by displacement face, the systems that influence their situation, and what solutions would address their challenges and improve their lives.

Let’s not forget that the number of people that have been forced to flee their homes keeps increasing, and has now surpassed 100 million.
