St Andrews Prize for the Environment --- Announcement of 2025-2026 Winner Sustainability Week
Join us during Sustainability Week for the announcement of the winner of the 2025-2026 of the St Andrews Prize for the Environment.
The St Andrews Prize is a major international competition led by the University of St Andrews that recognises and rewards inspirational responses to the most pressing environmental issues. Since 1998, it has awarded more than US$2.8 million in prize money to innovators from across the world who are working to protect the environment and encourage a more sustainable society.
The evening will begin with a presentation from previous winner, Kham River Restoration Mission, who will explain how the Prize has helped them to restore a seasonal river in Aurangabad, India. Following this, we will learn who has been selected as the 2025-2026 winner: the Sloth Conservation Foundation, IRIBA Water Group, or South Rupununi Conservation Society.
