The Ramon Magsaysay Award, often called Asia’s Nobel Prize, was awarded to Dr. Muhammad Yunus in 2000 for his 'dedication to the welfare of the poorest of the poor' through the Grameen Bank. The award recognized his innovative approach to lending small amounts to impoverished individuals, particularly women, enabling them to become self-sufficient entrepreneurs. The award was later commemorated in 2017 for his enduring legacy in global development.
