Prix Donner
Le prix Donner est un prix décerné chaque année par la Fondation canadienne Donner à des auteurs pour des livres considérés comme excellents en matière de rédaction de politiques publiques canadiennes[1]. Cette distinction a été créée en 1998[2] et vise à faire valoir un échange ouvert d'idées, ainsi qu'à fournir un tremplin aux auteurs et aux auteures qui peuvent apporter une contribution originale et importante au discours politique. La Fondation canadienne Donner a également créé le prix pour honorer et promouvoir les meilleures réflexions, écrits et recherches sur les politiques publiques canadiennes, ainsi que le rôle qu'elles jouent au niveau du bien-être des Canadiens et du succès du Canada dans son ensemble.
Le grand prix est de 50 000 $ et les finalistes présélectionnés reçoivent 7 500 $ chacun[3].
Les candidatures sont soumises par les éditeurs et sélectionnées par un jury de cinq personnes dont les membres sont tirés d'acteurs importants de la société canadienne tel que des professeurs, des gens d'affaire, des politiciens, etc.
Chaque année, le comité de sélection annonce une liste restreinte en avril. Les gagnants et les finalistes sont annoncés lors d'un banquet de remise des prix en avril ou en mai.
