The Mother Teresa Awards
The Mother Teresa Awards are awards to honour individuals and organizations that promote peace, equality and social justice, and aim to encourage the cause of justice and peaceful coexistence, while providing a impetus for society to imbibe these values. The award is given in honour of Mother Teresa.
Mother Teresa Awards have been given since 2005 annually or biannually. They are an initiative of Harmony Foundation, an organization created by Abraham Mathai in Mumbai. It is the only award in the name of Mother Teresa recognised by the Missionaries of Charity.[2] (Another award by this name, awarded for slightly different purposes, was approved by Mother Nirmala for use of the St. Bernadette Institute for Sacred Art.)[3]
