The GCA Local Adaptation Champions Awards spotlight and reward innovative, exemplary, inspiring, and scalable locally led efforts that address the impacts of climate change and build effective climate resilience among the most vulnerable communities, sections of society, and individuals who are at the frontlines of the greatest existential threat faced by humankind. This year, after the success of 2022, we are relaunching the Awards with new categories as we expand our reach and continue to highlight exceptional locally led efforts around the world.
The Awards are open to any individual, organization, or group of partners worldwide, who have implemented or are in the process of implementing climate change adaptation/resilience interventions.
Twenty nominees will benefit from publicity around their nomination for the Awards. Four winners will receive a cash prize of €15,000 and be invited to an Award Ceremony at COP28 in Dubai, which will take place from 30 November to 12 December 2023.
The call for applications will be open from 1-31 August 2023. Learn more at https://gca.org/llachampions/.
