The World Health Organization is seeking nominations for its 1989
award for outstanding work in the field of health education in
primary health care.
A cash prize of US$5,000 - to be used for continuing health
education activities - and a commemorative plaque are awarded
to the person(s), institution(s) or non-governmental
organization(s) making the best contribution towards
strengthening health education in primary health care.
Candidates may be nominated by any national health education
authority, a former prize recipient, or by any individual
insitution or NGO concerned with health education. UN agencies
