Orient and Occident Prize

The prize awarded by the Erwin Wickert Foundation honours personalities from all areas of political, scientific and cultural life. Regardless of their origins, they have brought together Far Eastern and Western traditions in life and work and have already demonstrated their understanding of the other cultural group through significant achievements and have received international recognition for this.
