Applications for our 2020 Global Climate Action Awards closed last week. Thank you to everyone who applied this year. We received
more than 500 applications across three categories!
The challenging task of selecting the most transformational climate action projects from hundreds of outstanding applications is currently underway. Shortlisted projects will be sent to our expertAdvisory Panelfor review by the end of June.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate their game-changing projects, especially during these challenging times.
Winning projects will be announced this autumn, and we hope to celebrate them at COP 26 in Glasgow, Scotland, next year. Stay tuned!
JUST RELEASED: New videos of our 2019 award-winning projects
Need some inspiration? We have just released 12 new videos showcasing the groundswell of climate action underway around the world.
The videos take a closer look at last year's winning activities. The activities featured in the videos range from an in-app mini-program that's helped plant 122 million trees, to a "climate positive" burger that's taking the fast food industry by storm. Other projects in the videos include a women-led project that generates clean energy from the ocean, and a movement of over 35,000 mothers mobilizing for a livable climate for their children.
The videos are narrated by Game of Thrones star and Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Development Programme Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Founding Signatory of the Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action Stella McCartney, and UN Goodwill Ambassador for Biodiversity Edward Norton.
All videos are available to watch and download on our Vimeo channel.
