The World Habitat Awards recognize and reward innovative, sustainable, and scalable housing solutions that address global housing challenges. Established in 1985 by World Habitat in partnership with UN-Habitat, the awards celebrate projects that improve housing conditions, promote social inclusion, and contribute to environmental sustainability. Each year, two Gold Winners receive a £10,000 prize, with additional Silver and Bronze Awards given to outstanding initiatives. The awards highlight best practices worldwide, encouraging their replication to tackle housing crises effectively.
