Irish award
The Human Dignity Award is an award made by the All-Party Oireachtas Life and Dignity Group, recognising people who have contributed to human dignity.[1] The award was set up in 2014 by Senator Rónán Mullen .
It was originally awarded by the Human Dignity Group, which was founded in 2008 by Mullen.[2] In January 2021, the All-Party Oireachtas Life and Dignity Group ,[3] which is co-chaired by TDs Peter Fitzpatrick and Carol Nolan , was established, on whose behalf the award is now awarded.[4] It is presented annually by the Ceann Comhairle of Dáil Éireann (the lower chamber of the Oireachtas ) or by the Cathaoirleach of Seanad Éireann (the Upper house of the Oireachtas).[citation needed ]
