BEIJING, July 22 -- The first-ever UNESCO award named
after a Chinese figure, the Confucius Literacy Prize, will debut this September
in Qufu, Confucius' hometown in eastern China's Shandong province.
The prize, which was approved at a UNESCO Executive
Board conference last year in Paris, aims to award government bodies,
non-government organizations and individuals for outstanding contributions in
the area of universal education.
The Shandong provincial government and the municipal
government of Jining will offer 150,000 US dollars annually for the prize, which
was initiated by Chinese experts in 2001.
Confucius, who is revered in China as a legendary
philosopher, educator and politician in olden times, established Confucianism
and did much to spread his theories that are deemed a mainstay of Chinese
traditional culture.
