The Committee of the Regions has launched the Mayor Paweł Adamowicz Award for courage and excellence in the promotion of freedom, solidarity and equality.
Paweł Adamowicz was the long-serving Mayor of the City of Gdańsk when he was murdered in January 2019 whilst carrying out his public duties.
While working for and representing democracy at a local level, he engaged with those who too often go unheard, offered solidarity to those in need, and advocated for the diversity which makes our societies more open and richer.
The Award represents a strong signal of hope for all elected representatives, officials and ordinary citizens who, despite the risks, live to make democracy work at a local level by supporting better and more open communities.
