Core Values Awards
The IAP2 Australasia Core Values Awards build awareness, contribute to the practice and recognise excellence in public participation and community engagement.
IAP2 Australasia’s premier Core Values Awards recognise and encourage projects and organisations that are at the forefront of community and stakeholder engagement. The awards were created to encourage excellence, quality, and innovation in public participation.
Over the last few years engagement practitioners have faced many new challenges, however, we have still seen some outstanding projects at the forefront of community and stakeholder engagement in Australasia.
Applications for the 2024 Awards are closed. Applications for the 2025 Core Values Awards will open in February 2025.
