Welcome
We would like to welcome you and thank you for your interest in joining The Earthshot Prize, we are delighted to be working in partnership with such a philanthropic and reputable organisation. This is a unique opportunity to join the senior leadership team and be a pivotal player in their incredible journey to accomplish their global challenge which states that “by 2030 the world must reduce c02 by over 40%, & protect at least 30% of nature, oceans and freshwater.”
The Earthshot Prize – which in July 2022 became an independent charity – is the most prestigious global prize for the environment in history. Launched by Prince William and The Royal Foundation in 2020, this global prize for the environment will incentivise change and help to repair our planet over the next ten years – a critical decade for the Earth.
Taking inspiration from President John F. Kennedy’s Moonshot which united millions around the goal to put man on the moon, The Earthshot Prize is centered around five ‘Earthshots’ – simple but ambitious goals for our planet which if achieved by 2030 will improve life for us all, for generations to come. Every year from 2021 until 2030, The Earthshot Prize will be awarded to five winners, one per Earthshot, whose solutions make the greatest impact towards these goals.
A word from their founder;
“The Earthshot Prize Finalists are living proof that the solutions we need do exist and that there are brilliant people across the globe working tirelessly to reverse the current climate trajectory.
I am an optimist.
As well as a passionate focus on telling the stories of those working to repair our planet, what sets The Earthshot Prize apart is our commitment to connect all of our finalists, not just the winners, with our global alliance ― a network of philanthropists, business leaders, entrepreneurs and strategic experts who share our vision and can truly supercharge these solutions to help change the course of our future.”
