The Gusi Peace Prize is a private[1] award given by the Gusi Peace Prize Foundation, based in Manila, Philippines. The Gusi Peace Prize recognizes individuals and organizations who have contributed to global peace and progress through a wide variety of fields. The awards ceremonies are held yearly in Manila, Philippines, on the fourth Wednesday of November.[2]
In addition to the award, the foundation is said to conduct charity and medical outreach in different provinces in the Philippines[3]
The Gusi Peace Prize is referred to in Presidential Proclamation No. 1476[4] signed by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, declaring every fourth Wednesday of November as the 'Gusi Peace Prize International Friendship Day'.
The Gusi Peace Prize was founded by its now chairman Barry Gusi as a way to continue the work of his late father, Gemeniano Javier Gusi, said to be a World War II guerrilla who fought against the Japanese and later became a politician and human rights advocate.
