Kisiel Prize
Kisiel Prize or Kisiel Award ( pl, Nagroda Kisiela) is an annual Polish award presented in three categories: publicist, politician/public figure and entrepreneur whose actions most closely portray the spirit and beliefs of the Polish publicist and politician, Stefan Kisielewski (1919-1991). History The award was established in 1990 by Kisielewski himself, with support of a major Polish weekly newspaper, ''Wprost''. Since Kisielewski's death in 1991, the award is being given out with the agreement of the group composed primarily of former winners of the award, Stefan Kisielewski's son Jerzy Kisielewski, and (until 2006) former Wprost's editor-in-chief Marek Król. In 2007, 2008, and 2009 the award was not given out, which caused some controversy, as many former winners criticized ''Wprost'' for drifting away from Kisielewski's views. Winners 2017 – Jadwiga Emilewicz, Jarosław Kaczyński, Ryszard Pieńkowski, Mariusz Szataniak and Paweł Szataniak 2016 – Paweł Kukiz, ...

People From Warsaw Governorate
