Deadline: July 12, 2024

Applications are open for the Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) Okayama Award 2024. In 2015, Okayama city launched the ESD Okayama Award to actively promote ESD and contribute to ESD around the world. The ESD Okayama Award is held annually by Okayama City and the ESD Okayama Award Steering Board consisting of organizations which have contributed to the promotion of ESD in Japan and around the world.

By recognizing outstanding examples of ESD in Japan and abroad, the ESD Okayama Award aims to help organizations that have implemented ESD projects to enhance their activities, and contribute to the dissemination of ESD and ultimately to the achievement of the SDGs.

Prize

  • The Global Prize of US $3,000 will be given to up to two projects. The prize should be used to expand the project.

Eligibility

  • Organizations based in any country and region implementing ESD activities in local communities are eligible to apply for the Award.
  • Only one application per organization can be accepted.
  • Projects eligible for this award are ongoing and have been running for at least two years as of April 2024. Projects in the planning stages are not eligible.
  • The organizations that have won the ESD Okayama Award in the past cannot apply with the award-winning projects but can apply with other projects.
