Youth representatives, environment champions, innovation awards, prizes for creativity, there are many ways the United Nations systems celebrates extraordinary achievements and rewards commitments to causes of importance to the organisations.
Every year, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) organises the Young Champions of the Earth competition. The global competition is one of the UN’s most prestigious prizes for young environmental entrepreneurs who have big ideas to solve the planet’s most pressing environmental challenges.
Previous Young Champions of the Earth winners have spearheaded bold, brave ideas to address critical environmental issues and the Sustainable Development Goals through high- and low-tech innovations.
In New York, at the annual General Assembly bringing together World Leaders from around the World, the organisation celebrates the UN SDG Action Awards, recognizing individuals, civil society organisations, subnational governments, foundations, networks, and private sector leaders who are advancing the global movement for the Sustainable Development Goals in the most transformative and innovative way.
If you have great ideas or are actively engaged in working toward the goals and objective of the organisation, you could be rewarded through any of the ongoing United Nations Awards and Prizes.
