The Premio Eugenio Espejo is the national prize of the nation of Ecuador. Decrees 677 and 699 (of August 1975 and September 1997, respectively) established the prize, which is conferred by the President of Ecuador. It is awarded every other year. Finalists for receiving the award are put on a short list by National Council of Culture (CNC), and grouped into five categories: Cultural Promotion, Arts, Literature, Science, and Public or Private Institutions. The recipients are then selected from that list by the head of state, who awards them a sum of money, a diploma, a medal and lifetime stipend.
