The Natura 2000 Award provides a unique opportunity to showcase nature conservation success stories. The Award celebrates excellence in the management of Natura 2000 sites across five categories: Conservation on Land, Marine Conservation, Working Together for Nature, Cross-Border Cooperation and Communication. Any public or private organisations involved in managing Natura 2000 sites across the European Union can apply – from national authorities and environmental NGOs, to businesses, farmers, hunters and landowners, education institutions to media organisations, even individuals. Applications to the European Natura 2000 Award 2024 will remain open until 29 September 2023, and can be submitted in all official EU languages via the Award website.
