Sustainability Awards recognize individuals or teams at the University of Washington who have made a positive impact on sustainability at the UW. Students, faculty, staff and groups from any UW campus are eligible for the award, and any member of the UW community can submit a nomination.</p> <p><strong>The 2025 nomination deadline is Saturday, April 26.</strong></p> <p>Contributions toward environmental or climate justice, environmental sustainability, equity and diversity, and other aspects included in the <a href="/definition">UW’s definition of sustainability</a> are encouraged. Nominations should include enough information for the selection committee to understand the full scope of a nominee’s achievements. Effort will be made to recognize winners that represent the broad diversity of the University, such as identifying awardees across all campuses, as well as students, staff and faculty members.</p> <p>We strive to recognize a broad spectrum of sustainability efforts, including connecting sustainability and social justice, community impacts, collaborations, student leadership, research and innovation, staff initiative, teaching, long-term achievement and more. We especially are looking for people and groups who show:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Impact</strong> - Work that has or will have a lasting effect and create change at the University.</li> <li><strong>Leadership</strong> – Demonstrated ability developing, garnering support for and implementing a sustainability project. </li> <li><strong>Initiative</strong> – Efforts far above and beyond normal duties to promote sustainability.</li> </ul> <p>Nomination submissions should include a description of why an individual or team should be recognized with an award. When possible, please include descriptions of measurable outcomes resulting from the nominee's actions, as well as descriptions of collaborations and efforts to engage the broader community in sustainability efforts.</p> </div></div></div><form class="webform-client-form webform-client-form-92" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="/awards" method="post" id="webform-client-form-92"
