Every year, incredible work happens across Australia’s water sector. Projects that improve lives. People who lead with purpose. Teams who solve complex challenges, often without seeking the spotlight.

 Now it’s time to recognise the people and projects driving that impact. 

This year, the Australian Water Awards have been refreshed to align with AWA’s Strategy 2030 and the evolving priorities of our sector. With refined award categories and updated nomination criteria, the awards continue to recognise the innovation, leadership and collaboration shaping Australia’s water future.

Nominations are now open across all states and territories.
