Objective

The Sustainability Impact Awards aims to celebrate individuals and businesses which have taken the lead to contribute to environmental and societal well-being through their work. The emphasis is on the impact that winners make to the sustainable progress of communities through their initiatives, rather than sustainability for its own sake. By recognising these individuals and businesses, all of whom are rigorously and holistically evaluated, the intention is to spur them on their journey as well as hold them up as torch bearers for the sustainability movement.
