Since the Zayed Sustainability Prize was formed more than a decade ago, schools, businesses, individuals and communities have come together to advocate the adoption of environmental stewardship and sustainable development and produce meaningful impact on climate change. It is my wish that, this global network continues to push the boundaries of innovation, deepens its commitment to renewable energy and delivers solutions that befit the vision of the UAE’s founding father, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan. H.E. Ahmed Ali Al Sayegh UAE Minister of State

When it comes to sustainability and climate change, there needs to be action now, not tomorrow. I call for everyone to take personal responsibility in our journey towards a shared vision of the future of our planet because if the current situation continues, then the world will not be able to handle this burden. Dr. Gro Harlem Brundtland Former Prime Minister of Norway
2016 winner, Lifetime Achievement category

We must make wise choices; the future depends upon the kind of vision that we have seen displayed by these award winners in the past. It’s an impressive group and I am honoured to be part of it. Al Gore Former Vice President of the USA
