APPLY

Are you involved in an initiative that sustainably provides food and/or water where previously there was insecurity? If so we would like to hear from you.

The Water and Food Award recognises and promotes sustainable initiatives from around the world. Every year, we create a list of applicants and select finalists who we fly to Copenhagen to receive publicity and contacts with companies looking to sponsor and assist their efforts.

The night of the award we choose a winner and present them with the Water and Food Award statuette as well as prizes provided by our sponsors.

Applications for the 2012 Award are closed. We will open for the next Award in November, 2012. Please come back to this site regularly for updates.

To get an idea of how to apply you can download last year’s application form.  Here is the kit in pdf format WAF Application Kit 2012_2b

Here is the KIT in Word format.

WAF Application Kit 2012_2b

Send the form to our applications manager, Carolynn Elung-Jensen at caje(at)wafaward(dot)org.
