Everyone wins. Cities. People. Planet
The AIPH World Green City Awards are designed to champion ambitious nature-orientated approaches to city design and operation. Specifically, they seek to recognise public initiatives relying on a greater use of plants and nature to create better city environments – helping to fulfil local aspirations for improved economic, social and, environmental resilience.
The 2024 edition of the AIPH World Green City Awards is offered in seven categories, with three finalists in each category from which one category winner is selected, and with one Grand Winner chosen from the seven category winners.
New to the 2024 edition is the Youth Award, held in partnership with the Global Youth Biodiversity network (GYBN).
The AIPH Youth Award will be decided by a new Youth Jury, whose compilation will be led by GYBN. The AIPH Youth Award is not a category – instead, all entries that are selected as finalists in each of the seven categories will be eligible for this Award. The AIPH Youth Award will be presented at the 2024 Awards ceremony alongside the AIPH World Green City Awards 2024 Category Winners and is envisaged to be an integral part of each future edition going forward.
All youth with a passion for building greener, healthier, and more resilient cities are invited to apply.
