The SATAs is the annual celebration of three sisters, as representatives of their congregations and networks, who have demonstrated exceptional courage, creativity, collaboration and achievement in the protection of their communities from human trafficking.
Award Categories
- The Common Good Award
- For courage and creativity in addressing exploitation Despite adverse conditions and sometimes scarce resources, sisters’ resourcefulness, innovation and dedication are leading to effective and sustainable work against trafficking across the world. This award winner will have demonstrated creativity and courage in their anti-trafficking interventions.
- The Servant Leadership Award
- For excellence in network-building Embedded in their communities, sisters are often uniquely placed to lead through service and develop long-term anti-trafficking systems and networks. This award winner will have demonstrated leadership in the anti-trafficking movement, contributed to the growth of anti-trafficking networks, and facilitated collaboration and dialogue across cultures and religions.
- The Human Dignity Award
- For lifetime achievement in addressing exploitation The effectiveness of sisters’ anti-trafficking work is often due to their familiarity with local customs and vulnerabilities, and the trust they have from local communities. This award will go to a sister who has been committed to the fight against human trafficking for at least 15 years, and whose work has proven impactful and sustainable.
Eligibility Criteria
- For all three awards, the nominee must:
- Be a religious sister who has worked, or is still working, on the local level against human trafficking and exploitation anywhere in the world;
- Be a recognized advocate of human dignity, addressing the root causes of human trafficking;
- Have proven that their way of working is based on collaboration, partnership, networking and dialogue.
- Self-nominations will not be accepted.
- Staff and trustees of the host organizations (Arise, UISG and Conrad N. Hilton Foundation) cannot be nominated.
