The 2021 International Green Gown Awards are Now Open!
Inspire and motivate your team, management and students to do more!
The International Green Gown Awards, supported by UN Environment, recognise exceptional sustainability initiatives being undertaken by universities and colleges around the globe. The Awards cover all aspects of educational institutions – from their teaching and research, leadership, buildings and food to how students can benefit the quality of life in the communities around them. The Awards provide the sector with benchmarks for excellence and are respected by Governments, funding councils, senior management, academics and students.
There are five categories institutions can apply to:
- Benefitting Society
- Creating Impact – NEW for 2021**
- Next Generation Learning and Skills – NEW for 2021
- Student Engagement
- Sustainability Institution of the Year
The International Green Gown Awards Stage 1 is open to any university or college across the world*. Apply today for an Award to open up new opportunities for your institution.
There is no limit on the number of applications or categories each institution can enter. Entry is free of charge, however, we do ask for voluntary entry fees.
Thanks to the Higher Education Sustainability Initiative, The Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU), L’Agence universitaire de la Francophonie (AUF) and International Association of Universities (IAU) for supporting the International Green Gown Awards.
The deadline for applications is 31 March 2021.
