The 4th Annual 'Ahmadiyya Muslim Prize for the Advancement of Peace' was presented by Ahmadiyya Khalifa His Holiness Mirza Masroor Ahmad to Dr Oheneba Boachie-Adjei, in recognition of his outstanding work in the promotion of peace through his life-changing medical work that has provided hope and a future for thousands of people in the developing world. Accepting the award in person, Dr Boachie-Adjei said he was "deeply honored and humbled" to receive the award and also said it was of great importance for all people to "to remember our roots and give back." The prize was given at the 10th Annual Peace Symposium, held on 23rd March 2013, at the largest Mosque in the Western Europe, Baitul Futuh Mosque in London. The event attracted an audience of more than 1,000 people, including Government Ministers, Ambassadors of State, Members of both Houses of Parliament and various other dignitaries and guests from all walks of life. The theme of this year's Symposium was 'The Pathway to Peace.' Before the keynote address, various dignitaries spoke about the importance of peace and the means to achieve it. Many in the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community think of this as a Nobel Peace prize, without the political strings attached. The recipients in the previous years have been: SOS Children's Villages UK - 2011 Recipient Abdul Sattar Edhi - 2010 Recipient Lord Eric Avebury - 2009 Recipient Whilst delivering the keynote address, His Holiness warned of catastrophic consequences if true justice at all levels was not observed. He said the risk of a nuclear war was real and was the biggest threat to today's civilization. Islam focuses on securing peace in every sphere of human activity. It encourages all to promote education, respect and tolerance, improve social and interfaith harmony, support charitable causes and serve humanity regardless of race, creed or color The Ahmadiyya Muslim community is dedicated to establish peace at all levels and to protect the basic human rights of all. In light of this it is keen to recognize efforts made by anyone to advance the cause of peace. The Ahmadiyya Muslim Peace Prize is therefore awarded in recognition of an individuals or an organisations contribution for the advancement of the cause of peace.

Peace Symposium (8th Annual) held on 26th March 2011 at Baitul Futuh Mosque, London, England. Press Release: http://www.alislam.org/egazette/press-release/muslim-leader-praises-british-spirit-of-tolerance/ On Saturday 26th March 2011 the Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat, Hadhrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad, spoke at length upon the issue of achieving global peace whilst delivering the keynote address at the 8th Annual Peace Symposium of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat UK, held at the Baitul Futuh Mosque in Morden. The event attracted an audience of over 1,000, including Government Ministers, MPs, senior Foreign Embassy officials and members of the British armed forces. During the event the 2nd Ahmadiyya Peace Prize was presented to Abdul Sattar Eidhi, the founder of the Eidhi Foundation, in recognition of his continued efforts in terms of social welfare and humanitarian relief. The award was accepted by Mr Eidhi via a video message due to him being otherwise engaged in facilitating the relief efforts for the Japan earthquake victims. In his welcome address, Rafiq Ahmad Hayat, the President of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat UK, said that the Ahmadiyya community was leading the way in removing misconceptions about Islam. It was a religion that advocated peace, understanding and thus the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat promoted integration and dialogue at all levels. Siobhain McDonagh, MP for Mitcham and Morden, quoted a verse of the Holy Qur'an which advocates justice and fair dealing in all circumstances. She said that justice and tolerance were fundamental to a peaceful society. Lord Eric Avebury who last year won the inaugural Ahmadiyya Peace Prize for his continued efforts to promote human rights across the world said that the root cause of all the recent conflict in the world was intolerance. He said that existing UN mechanisms required reform and that he felt that the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat was very well placed to play a key role in that process. Ed Davey, MP for Surbiton and Kingston and Minister for Employment Relations, paid tribute to the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat for 'championing the cause of peace of peace worldwide'. He said that the Jamaat's motto of 'Love for All, Hatred for None' was a truly inspiring message. Dominic Grieve QC, MP for Beaconsfield and the Attorney General, said that in the past year the world had witnessed many examples of intolerance for example attacks on Ahmadi Muslims and on Christians. The world faced constant challenges and the biggest challenge was ensuring that each person was free to exercise his own conscience and free will. If this principle was observed then people in conflict ridden countries could come to have the same rights that are taken for granted in countries such as the UK.
