The Prix mondial Cino Del Duca (Cino Del Duca World Prize) is an international literary award.
[1] It was established in 1969 in France by Simone Del Duca (1912–2004) to continue the work of her husband, publishing magnate Cino Del Duca (1899–1967).
The award recognizes an author whose work constitutes, in a scientific or literary form, a message of modern humanism.

Following her death in 2004, the foundation was placed under the auspices of the Institut de France.
