Folkeopplysningsprisen is a Norwegian prize awarded annually by Voksenopplæringsforbundet, the Norwegian Association for Adult Learning (NAAL), since 1998, in connection with the "Education days for adults", formerly "Week of Adult Learning". According to the statutes, the prize is awarded to "individuals, groups, organizations or institutions for efforts beyond the ordinary, over time, to create conditions and incentives for emancipation, cooperation, growth and development through knowledge. Efforts should be founded on humanistic grounds. The purpose of the prize is to encourage democratization of knowledge, communication of knowledge, and to increase opportunities for participation and interaction, reflection and the use of one's own personal experience.〔(Folkeopplysningsprisen - statutter ) 〕 The Scandinavian term ''folkeopplysning'' (Danish/Norwegian) consists of ''folk'' ("people") and ''opplysning'' ("enlightenment"). Together with the Swedish synonym ''folkbildning'', it can be considered close to the concepts of popular education, liberal education, and community education. The learning ideal is rooted in the thoughts of the Age of Enlightenment and Rousseau's concept of popular sovereignty. It is often traced back to N. F. S. Grundtvig's folk high school movement in Denmark in the 1840s and the use of study circles in Swedish labour- and temperance movements in the very beginning of the 20th century (1902).〔Sturla Bjerkaker (26 January 2011). (Nordic Folkeopplysning/Folkbildning and worldwide challenges )〕 The connection to democratic ideas is considered important in ''folkeopplysning'', with enlightenment taken as a foundation for democracy. == Winners == Although it is not a clear requirement of the award's statutes, all the award winners to date have been Norwegian people or institutions.
