which country awards the nobel peace prize

The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded in Norway , with the ceremony held in Oslo each year on 10 December.

Who gives the prize?

• The Nobel Peace Prize is decided and awarded by the Norwegian Nobel Committee , a five‑member body appointed by the Parliament of Norway (the Storting).

• This makes it unique among Nobel Prizes, since the others are awarded by Swedish institutions and presented in Stockholm, Sweden.

Why Norway and not Sweden?

• Alfred Nobel’s will explicitly stated that the Peace Prize should be awarded in Norway, while the other prizes would be handled in Sweden, but he did not clearly explain why.

• Historians and the Norwegian Nobel Committee suggest he may have seen Norway as less militaristic and more active in peaceful conflict resolution and international arbitration at the end of the 19th century.

TL;DR: If you are wondering which country awards the Nobel Peace Prize , the answer is Norway.
