The GUPES Green Gown Awards is a joint initiative supported by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and EAUC, that expands the Green Gown Awards further across the globe with an emphasis on profiling and learning from the Southern Hemisphere. This exciting partnership with the Global Universities Partnership on Environment and Sustainability (GUPES) will put universities and colleges as leaders in sustainability as well as being able to continue their learning from global leaders. The GUPES Green Gown Awards are open to GUPES Members across 6 regions (Africa, Asia and the Pacific, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, North America and West Asia). The GUPES Green Gown Award Winner from each of the 6 regions will automatically be entered into the International Green Gown Awards contest. All applications are to be in English.
