The Prize is awarded in alternate years to an individual, a non-government organisation, a governmental organization, a research institute or a small enterprise, that has shown outstanding promise in improving access to, or management of, water; enhancing the lives of farmers and rural communities; or providing better nourishment to communities suffering from nutritional deficiencies.
This year’s winner was International Development Enterprises (IDE) Cambodia for a project improving agricultural productivity and income among the rural Cambodian population.
