Only 107 individuals and 24 organization can claim to have won the Nobel Peace Prize. Plenty more are in the running for the 2021 award, but only one will be named winner.
The Norwegian Nobel Committee (NNC), a five member panel that decides who wins, does not comment on nominations. However some choose to reveal their picks.
Nominations for 2021 s award have been trickling out ahead of last Sunday s deadline, while more names were revealed in a survey of Norwegian lawmakers by Reuters.
The bar for nominations is relatively low. They re accepted from lawmakers, ex-winners, heads of state and university chancellors, among others. That has allowed dictators Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin to be among past nominees.
