Climathon Awards is the annual celebration of citizens, cities, and Climathon organisers that joined the year-long programme to raise awareness, collaborate and rethink the future of our cities.
This edition of the Awards marks the 5-year anniversary of Climathon, uniting thousands of citizens and solutions across 6 continents that bring to life inspiring ideas and solutions for the future we want as citizens.
Climathon Awards offers a platform for Climathon organisers and partners, participating citizens, and hundreds of cities to gain international recognition and showcase how cities can transform toward a net-zero carbon economy.
This year, the Awards is open to all citizens of the world to connect, share and take action through digital events.

The selection process

The Climathon team will be selecting the top 5 ideas from each category and launch an online 'Public Vote' in January 2021.
The public will nominate the top 3 finalists in each category, permitting a total of 6 ideas to be assessed by international jury panels who will select one Climathon Awards winner in each category.
The public ceremony takes place on 21 January, 2020 where the teams will receive LIVE international recognition from the global Climathon community, followed by expert coaching to continue developing their idea.
