Worked on a challenging project? Mastered a tricky comms issue? Managed to drive positive change in the community? Share your work with others, and be recognised for excellence by the only awards program that honours the dedication, innovation and passion of communicators on a global scale – for more than 40 years.
Timeframe
All eligible work must be implemented, published or broadcast between January 2019 and the day of submission. If a long-term strategy was developed prior to January 2019 and hasn’t previously been entered, it is eligible for entry. If you entered your work in 2020 or 2021 and didn’t win an award, you may revise and re-enter your project. Entries that have won in previous years may not be resubmitted.
