The Khalifa Award for Education closes nominations for its 19th cycle. Winners across 10 fields and 17 categories will be announced in April 2025.

"The wide response... reflects the award's distinguished standing. - Hamid Al Houti, Secretary-General"

Abu Dhabi, January 2

The General Secretariat of the Khalifa Award for Education has announced the closure of nominations for the award's 19th cycle for 2025-2026, which was launched last July. The names of the winners are scheduled to be announced at the end of April.

This cycle includes 10 fields across 17 categories.

Hamid Al Houti, Secretary-General of the award, said the wide response from the education sector at the local, Arab and international levels reflects the award's distinguished standing.

According to the approved timeline, he explained, initial screening by specialised committees begins immediately after the close of nominations, followed by judging and evaluation of eligible submissions against the criteria set for each field and category.

Al Houti added that the process is conducted with full objectivity and transparency, in line with the award's vision of promoting a culture of excellence in education and academia.

This stage will be followed by field visits to a number of educational and community institutions shortlisted for the final round, to assess the tangible impact of the submitted projects and initiatives on the sector and the local community.

Transparency and objectivity are key for any award's credibility. The field visit process mentioned is impressive - it ensures the award goes to projects with real impact, not just paperwork. Hope Indian award bodies learn from this.

While this is a positive initiative, I hope the "international" scope is truly inclusive. Sometimes these awards from the Gulf region focus heavily on Arab participants. It would be good to see winners from South Asia and Africa too.

17 categories is quite comprehensive! Education needs this kind of holistic recognition - not just for academic toppers but for community projects, innovation, and teaching methodologies. More power to such efforts.

As someone in the education sector, I appreciate awards that assess tangible community impact. Too many awards in India are just about who you know. The field visit model is something we should adopt.
