Hubert H. Humphrey Public Leadership Awards
Call for Nominations
The Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs is seeking nominations for the
inaugural Hubert H. Humphrey Public Leadership Awards. This newly
instituted awards program is designed to honor and recognize individuals,
organizations, or projects that have made demonstrated contributions to the
common good through public leadership and service.
Nominations must show how the nominee has contributed significantly to the
common good through public leadership or service in elected office, career
public service, the non-profit/non-governmental sector, community service,
and/or the private sector. Consideration will be given to those who have
altered the political landscape through a lifetime of public leadership,
sustained a major positive influence through a career of public service,
fostered a sense of community, demonstrated social entrepreneurship,
furthered active citizenship, and/or demonstrated a significant act of
courage in the face of opposition, pressure, or challenging circumstances.
Nominees should demonstrate stewardship of the common good, innovation,
initiative in solving problems directly, and sustained commitment to public
service. Consideration also will be given to emerging public leaders who
show great potential to further enhance the common good beyond their past
and current contributions.
Special consideration will be given to nominees who have blurred political
boundaries - whether working across party lines, crossing geo-political
borders or bridging other traditional divides.
To nominate an individual, organization, or project, please submit the
following information:
. Name and contact information of nominee, including address,
telephone, fax, and e-mail (if possible)
. Name and contact information of nominator(s), including address,
telephone, fax, and e-mail (if possible)
. Letter of nomination describing how the nominee satisfies the above
listed criteria. The letter of nomination may not exceed one page. Do not
include attachments. (Additional information may be requested later in the
process.)
Letters of nomination must be received no later than February 3, 2003.
Only letters with all contact information will be considered. Nominations
may be submitted via regular mail, special delivery, e-mail, or fax. The
names of the nominees and nominators will be held in confidence. Please
send nomination materials to:
