TRAILBLAZING LEADERSHIP
FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
WHO CAN WIN?
The WIN WIN Gothenburg Sustainability Award of 1 million SEK is open to individuals, organisations, or movements worldwide that contribute significantly to sustainability, aligning with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The winners are appointed by an independent jury that assesses candidates based on criteria such as impact, scalability, systems thinking, and a holistic approach to sustainability. These criteria ensure that the laureates' work not only addresses immediate challenges but also has the potential for broad, long-term impact and positive change.
