Awards such as The Young Environmentalist, One Good Idea and the Gaisce Award, provide huge personal development for students, providing them with opportunities to upskill in areas that they are not available in the standard curriculum.

The Young Environmentalist places an emphasis on personal development and student empowerment. The awards honour the work of young people to protect, conserve and enhance the environment through local environmental projects, making a difference to their lives and the lives of others both locally and globally.

Here is a selection of some awards that Education for Sustainability have been lucky enough to have been shortlisted for our have indeed won outright. We think its fantastic recognition for all involved who have worked hard on the submissions and on the projects submitted. More importantly the profile for the organisation and for what we do and what we stand for gets raised, which we think is brilliant and gets us closer to our main goal, which is to raise as much awareness of the issues to as many children in the fastest amount of time as possible due to the urgency of the climate situation.
