Awards
The Global Sustainability Awards (GSA) is an esteemed initiative that aims to honour schools, students, educators, startups, NGOs and corporates who have demonstrated exemplary commitment to sustainable development.
The event provides a platform to showcase best practices, inspire change, and drive impactful collaborations.
Last 5 editions of GSA (2021, 2022, 2023, 2024,2025) saw participation from over 2,000 students, teachers, schools, NGOs & Startups from over 55+ countries across the globe.
This year, we have already received applications from 55+ countries. We intend to make it even bigger by conducting the first-ever and one of its kind, SUSTAINABILITY FEST in Delhi. Visit https://globalsustainabilityawards.net for more details.
GSA 2026 will tentatively be held in Nov, 2026 in New Delhi, India.
