Welcome to the 2009 Judges

 

We've brought together an exciting panel of over 35 judges to participate in the 2009 Green Awards. And we've decided  to do things a little bit differently this year and broaden the appeal of the event by creating two distinct judging panels to reflect the accelerated growth of green marketing campaigns internationally, and recognise best practice around the world.

The Global Panel will judge the Best Green International Campaign remotely and convene by video conference. This panel is made up of ten experts from around the world who understand the importance of effective communications and the complex issues surrounding sustainability. The UK panel will meet as previously in London and consists of approximately 25 experts representing a range of organisations from independent sustainability professionals through to creative heads covering a range of disciplines from radio through to design and advertising.

The chair of the Global Panel will be Satinder Bindra, Director of the Division of Communications and Public Information (DCPI), United Nations Environment Programme, (UNEP) Kenya. And the UK judging panel will be chaired by Dr Peter White, Director of Global Sustainability, P & G.

Judging Panel 2007
“The Green Awards celebrates leaders who create imaginative responses to the current climate crisis, turning it into opportunities. Our founder, Wangari Maathai, saw the environmental problems of Kenya in the 1970s, and created the Green Belt Movement to help ordinary citizens bring about the change they want to see.”
