The International Green Gown Awards, in association with Allianz Global Investors, are supported by UN Environment Programme and are open to any university or college across the world.

Now in their 10th year, the 2024 Awards were launched in February and winners announced in October. The 2025 International Awards will open again in January. 

Recognising exceptional sustainability initiatives being undertaken by the world's universities and colleges, the International Green Gown Awards set the bar and put every learning institution at the heart of delivering the UN Global Goals.

We are delighted to be working in partnership with The Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU), L’Agence universitaire de la Francophonie (AUF), International Association of Universities (IAU) and the Higher Education Sustainability Initiative (HESI). 

The Green Gown Awards are delivered regionally by ACTS for the Australasian Green Gown Awards and EAUC for the UK & Ireland Green Gown Awards.

Please support the International Green Gown Awards

Students and universities are full of world-changing sustainability ideas, but for too long their Award-winning solutions to the climate and environmental crisis have been ignored.

Help us to get the word out and globally scale their brilliance.

We believe in students and the power of education and the International Green Gown Awards help identify the best ideas and encourage others to take action. The Awards are UN recognised but we don't get any funding to run them. That is why we need your help.

By donating you will help the International Green Gown Awards to recognise and scale more of the exceptional sustainability initiatives being undertaken around the globe, many of which will, contribute to how the world builds back better from the Covid-19 pandemic.
