The WeMed Mediterranean Sustainability Award aims to promote an inclusive transition to sustainability in the Southern Mediterranean countries, contributing to build back better after the devastating socio-economic impacts of COVID-19.

The award recognises success stories of sustainable businesses and other actors supporting them, to raise awareness about the role of sustainable entrepreneurs as key drivers for the transition towards a green, circular and blue economy in the Mediterranean, as well as the challenges that they face and the important role of different actors to support them.

WES partners UNEP/MAP and  SCP/RAC are launching the WeMedAward as a flagship initiative of the Mediterranean Strategy for Sustainable Development.
