Dec. 31 | Environmental Excellence Awards - Call for Entries
Arizona Forward is redefining how we honor sustainability leadership. For 2026, the Environmental Excellence Awards are evolving into a solutions-based program—one that celebrates innovation not just for what it is, but for the real-world challenges it solves and the measurable difference it makes. Whether it’s a building, work of art, new technology, or grassroots initiative, what matters most is impact—on communities, the environment, and Arizona’s sustainable future. From innovation and advocacy to community action and design, these awards shine a spotlight on the people and projects moving Arizona forward.
We invite you to submit your project by December 31, 2025, and save the date for the Environmental Excellence Awards program on March 21, 2026.
