Eligibility/Description

The Heroes of Tomorrow: UN SDG Action Awards, a signature programme of the UN SDG Action Campaign, champions initiatives and committed individuals who wield the power of creativity and innovation to bring us closer to a more sustainable, equitable and peaceful world. Through the Awards, the Campaign is committed to showcasing the heroes of tomorrow while sending a message of hope and possibilities. Each year, a high-level panel of judges and a technical review team consider over 5,500 applications and nominations from 190 countries, selecting finalists and then the winners.

Finalists are invited to the Heroes of Tomorrow: UN SDG Action Awards Ceremony which unveils and celebrates the winners with music, art and inspiring messages from leaders from all backgrounds and regions of the world.

The 2025 UN SDG Action Awards Ceremony will take place on Wednesday, 29 October 2025 in Rome, Italy. It will reach global audiences – with over 5 million viewers for the 2024 edition – through UN WebTV, Deutsche Welle, and RAI, Italy’s public national broadcaster.

The Heroes of Tomorrow: UN SDG Action Awards programme is made possible by the generous financial support of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MAECI) and the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
