In response to the United Nations 2015 Paris Climate Agreement, the UNAA is promoting the development of a national, inclusive climate management framework.

To coincide with World Environment Day 2017, the UNAA held a national Climate Collaboration forum on 7 June. Click here for all the details.

The Awards were incorporated into the UNAA Climate Collaboration forum and included a new focus on climate management and action.

The awards highlighted work done by organisations and individuals that will enable Australia to adapt most effectively to expected changes in climate; mitigate the effects of such climate change and help move Australia to net zero emissions by the second half of this century.

In 2018, we have focused our program on the Sustainable Development Goals more generally and, as a result, will not be running these awards.
