The Yves Rocher Foundation has opened applications for the 2027 international Terre de Femmes Award. The award is for women of any nationality who are committed to protecting nature and trees. This edition's theme is "Trees in the City." It aims to make cities greener, improve air quality, support biodiversity and reduce the effects of climate change. Urban green spaces keep shrinking around the world, which puts both city ecosystems and the communities that depend on them at risk.
Two laureates from around the world will be chosen. Each will receive a €10,000 grant for their project and join a community of committed women working to protect nature.
Projects That Can Apply
- Urban greening projects.
- Urban tree nurseries, including local nurseries for endangered trees.
- Educational projects that involve children, schools and local residents in tree-related activities.
- Innovative agroforestry food systems in urban settings.
- Any project that defends trees.
Key Eligibility Criteria
- Applicant: Be a woman of legal age, of any nationality, or a group of adult women.
- Organisation: The project must be run by a non-profit organisation, such as an association, NGO or foundation, that has existed for at least one year.
- Entries: Each person can submit only one application.
- Exclusions: Members of the Yves Rocher Foundation and people involved in organising the award cannot apply, and winners from the last two editions are not eligible.
Award Benefits
- Grant: €10,000 per project, for two laureates worldwide.
- Community: A place in a network of women committed to protecting trees and nature.
