THE DAN DAVID PRIZE is a joint international enterprise endowed by the Dan David Foundation and headquartered at Tel Aviv University. The prize has an annual value of $3 million which is divided equally each year between recipients for outstanding achievements with a scientific, technological, cultural, or social impact. Each year fields are chosen within the three time dimensions, Past, Present and Future. Recipients donate ten percent of their prize money to graduate students doing research in their fields.

The Prize encourages research that cuts across established disciplinary boundaries. It fosters universal values of excellence, creativity, justice, democracy, and progress and without reference to gender, race, ethnicity, color, religion, language, nationality, disability or political affiliation. Recipients of the Prize have included Margaret Atwood, Saul Friedlander, Robert Langer, Goenwan Mohamad, Adam Michnik, Amoz Oz, Pierre Nora, Tom Stoppard and Leon Wieseltier.
