Interesting choice, especially since the referendum itself fell through. But it is a strong signal for Santos and the FARC to work out a new deal.

Ending a 50 year civil war would be amazing for Colombia. Kudos to the comittee for taking such an "old" conflict and not picking up a (for lack of a better word) "hip" topic.

I do not mean that the White Helmets or every other Organisation on the short list would not have earned the price, however I think it is a good thing that they try to strengthen a peace process that would put an end to such a long-lasting conflict.
