The International Green Gown Awards recognise, celebrate and showcase exceptional sustainability initiatives from tertiary education institutions around the world.
Established in 2014 and supported by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), the awards have become one of the most prestigious recognitions of leading sustainability practice in education in the world.
The International Green Gown Awards are delivered by EAUC, and are supported by Australasian Campuses Towards Sustainability (ACTS), International Association of Universities (IAU) and the Higher Education Sustainability Initiative (HESI).
The ethos of the International Green Gown Awards is to ensure the lessons and examples of best practice are shared within the sector and beyond across the world.
