The 4th Noosa Biosphere Awards are now open for entries, recognising those making a positive impact in the Noosa region.
In 2024, the Awards will recognise excellence across community, environmental and business sustainability, with new categories being announced.
Noosa Biosphere Reserve Foundation Chair, Fiona Berkin says the 2024 Awards have been revamped to recognise outstanding achievements in social impact, environmental stewardship, technology, conservation and sustainable business.
“Coming into our fourth year, we want the Noosa Biosphere Awards to better represent our Noosa Biosphere values across the Noosa Shire community,” said Ms Berkin.
“Biosphere reserves are about thriving communities that respect and preserve their natural environment. This includes looking after its people, individuals acting as agents of change, in addition to education and conservation,” said Ms Berkin.
The 2024 awards include six categories for entry:
Entries are open to individuals, community groups, organisations and business. Winners will be announced at the Awards ceremony on Wednesday 6 November at Sunshine Beach Surf Club.
As the premier environment and sustainability awards in the region, the Noosa Biosphere Awards recognise and celebrate the outstanding efforts of those individuals and businesses working to make a positive difference in the Noosa Biosphere – the Noosa Shire.
“We invite everyone to nominate an individual or business doing great things. It’s easy to nominate and it may be the encouragement they need to enter the awards,” said Ms Berkin.
“We’d also love to hear from any businesses who’d like to sponsor the Awards and be involved.”
Entries close Sunday 8 September. Nominate or enter the Awards at www.noosabiosphere.org.au/awards.
