Bukhman Philanthropies is proud to partner with the Women’s Prize Trust to launch a new award: the Outstanding Contribution Award, created to celebrate a woman writer’s exceptional impact on literature. This award marks the 30th anniversary of the Women’s Prize for Fiction and aims to honour those whose literary work has left an indelible mark on the cultural landscape.
‘’By shining a spotlight on a remarkable woman writer, we aim to elevate the perception of women in literature, fostering a greater understanding of their contributions and impact,’’ said Daria Bukhman, the Co-Chair of Bukhman Philanthropies.
The award will be conducted with the utmost discretion, following the same principles of respect, expertise, and confidentiality that guide the Women’s Prize Trust’s annual prizes. We are excited to celebrate the incredible women writers whose voices have shaped our world - and whose future work will continue to inspire generations to come.
