The World Cultural Council (WCC) is an international organization, founded in Mexico, that promotes the progress of science, culture, and education to enrich human life and help solve the multiple problems facing the planet. It seeks to foster collaboration, understanding, diversity, and sustainable development among individuals, academia, and communities, and to celebrate the achievements of human creativity while respecting differences between people and peoples. The primary means by which the WCC accomplishes its mission is through its Annual Award Ceremony, at which it awards remarkable individuals for their accomplishments in the fields of science, education, and culture.
Since 1984, its award ceremonies have been hosted by leading universities and institutions across the globe. Moving the ceremony each year underscores the Council’s international scope and its determination to foster cultural and scientific exchange worldwide. The WCC is enthusiastic about McGill University hosting the event, which will provide an excellent setting for recognizing the outstanding achievements of the awardees.
