The BrandLaureate also recognized The Prem Rawat Foundation for how its Peace Education Program has helped incarcerated people in 892 correctional institutions across the world transform their lives. The program has also proven to benefit a wide range of other groups, including high school and university students, with 400,000 participants in over 80 countries.
In all of these endeavors Prem Rawat and TPRF have embraced innovative technologies and branding strategies to advance the timeless understanding that peace is possible, and it begins with each one of us. This empowering outreach has engaged hundreds of millions of people with books, video broadcasts, podcasts, mobile applications, social media and other pioneering efforts. The BrandLaureate is the most coveted branding award in the world and it is intended to "acknowledge the value, strength and character" of these efforts and provide an "endorsement of being the best."
In accepting the honors, Prem Rawat gave a speech during the awards ceremony, expressing his gratitude for the recognition and offering insights on the importance of personal peace to the gathering of brand and industry leaders from across the world.
The BrandLaureate also recognized several other distinguished leaders and brands throughout the gala, including YBhg Datuk Wira (Dr) Calvin Khiu, Founder of OE EduGroup, Ms. Manvin Kaur Khera, Miss Globe 2023 and Mr. K. Raman, Managing Director of Microsoft (Malaysia).
