Past winners have included Google, Microsoft, and the Government of British Columbia, Canada.

Organizations, cities, industries, universities, governments, and others taking bold leadership on climate change can nominate their work for a UN Global Climate Action Award.

The award, the focus of the United Nations Climate Changeโ€™s Momentum for Change initiative, recognizes the most innovative projects in the field of climate action.
