For the 2024-2025 Kyelem Prize nomination process, we are excited to announce that, for the first time, we will be awarding two distinct Kyelem Prizes. The first category is the NTD Lifetime Achievement, honoring an individual whose enduring contributions have created a lasting impact on the global fight against neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). The second category is the NTD Emerging Leader, celebrating an emerging talent in the NTD community who has shown outstanding promise and dedication to advancing efforts in NTD control and elimination.

Nominations are now open for both categories, and we invite submissions of outstanding candidates whose work aligns with the goals of the global NTD community.

Please use the form below to make a nomination. Individuals may make multiple nominations, and can do so by submitting this form multiple times – once per nominee. NOTE: Selection for the short list is based on the number of individual nominations, and not on the number of individuals co-signing a single nomination form.

DEADLINE: December 1, 2024 at 11:59 PM EDT
