The Andrei Sakharov Prize for Writer's Civic Courage (1990–2007) was an annual literary prize established in the Soviet Union by the "Writers in Support of Perestroika" association (also known as the "Aprel" (April) association), in October 1990.[1] It ceased to exist in 2007, when the "Aprel" sssociation was dissolved.[citation needed]
The first recipient of the prize was Lydia Chukovskaya.[1] The last recipient was Galina Drobot, editor-in-chief of the "Aprel" almanac. As the following list of recipients indicates, the prize was a "lifetime achievement" award and went to established figures. In this respect, it differed from the Andrei Sakharov "Journalism as an Act of Conscience" Award, which was first awarded in 2004.
