The Earthshot Prize
“The Earthshot Prize exists to champion the game-changers,
the makers, the creatives, the leaders.
When they win, we all win.”
HRH Prince William
Founder and President
The Earthshot Prize is a global environmental award designed to inspire and scale the most innovative solutions to repair and regenerate our planet. Launched in 2021 to address the world’s most urgent climate and biodiversity challenges, the Prize brings together leaders in science, technology, conservation, and policy to champion groundbreaking ideas with the potential to transform our collective future.
There are five Earthshots each carrying a prize of £1 million, which are Protect and Restore Nature; Clean our Air; Revive our Oceans; Build a Waste-Free World; and Fix our Climate.
The Rumi Foundation played an important role in the early formation of the Earthshot concept and its initial set-up, helping shape the vision for a prize that could mobilise global ambition and accelerate real, measurable environmental impact.
Today, the Earthshot Prize stands as one of the world’s most influential sustainability initiatives, celebrating remarkable innovators and empowering them to deliver solutions that can help protect and restore the planet for generations to come.
