Nathwani Prize Nominations
Nathwani Prize – Making the Difference: Call for Nominations The EBCC-7 Organising Committee invites nominations for the Nathwani Prize – recognising an outstanding contribution to the arts/humanities relating directly to the fight against breast cancer. Thanks to the generous donation of the Nathwani family, we are able to award an individual whose contribution and personal achievement reflects the efforts and vision that unite us all. This individual will be a person whose experience with breast cancer as a survivor, relative or friend has motivated him/her to make a difference, acting as an inspiration in our continuous fight against this disease. The EBCC-7 Nathwani Prize will be awarded to the individual who has made a difference through an artistic or humanistic activity such as: music, photography, artwork, film, drama, dance, literature, or poetry. | |

The 2008 Nathwani Prize was awarded to Gabriele Schrärer for her short film Busenfreundinnen/Affaires de Bain that poignantly highlights the communication challenges faced by women diagnosed with breast cancer.
The EBCC-5 Nathwani Prize was conferred to Catherine Thornton for her book Why Mum?-a Small child dealing with a big Problem which described her breast cancer experience through the eyes of her 7 year old son. At EBCC-4 the prize was awarded to a husband and wife musical group – her battle with breast cancer motivated numerous works which they performed on the occasion of the Conference’s opening ceremony. At EBCC-3 it was given to a well-known flamenco dancer who is a breast cancer survivor and continues to inspire through her teaching and performances.
Such efforts must not go unrecognised - we invite you to nominate an individual within your respective country who you believe deserves this significant recognition on the occasion of the 7th European Breast Cancer Conference in Barcelona.
The Nathwani Prize is worth 1.500 EUR and includes an all expenses paid trip to attend EBCC-7.
