The Stiansen Award is given to individuals and/or organizations that have made an extraordinary effort to help animals over the past year. Dag S. Stiansens Stiftelse gladly accepts suggestions and nominations for who should be awarded each year. Suggestions and nominations are accepted until the deadline of September 15th each year.

The condition for Award nominations is that the nominated must have strived to promote animal rights during the last year – such as traditional animal welfare, animal training and research, and political advocacy.

The winner of the Stiansen Award is chosen by the board of the Foundation, based on recommendations from the Foundation’s council, which consists of individuals with high expertise and special dedication to animal welfare.

Nominations are open until September 15th, and the winner is announced medio October each year.
