International Philanthropy Award

Use our awards website to nominate someone for the International Philanthropy Award.

Nominations are welcomed from Philanthropy Australia members, non-members, supporters and friends of our partner organisations.

The Australian Philanthropy Awards are open to all members of the Australian philanthropic and broader social change community. You are able to nominate your own organisation.

Nominations are assessed by the selection panel on the following criteria:

3. Demonstrates leadership in contributing to more and/or better international philanthropy by Australians.
4. Specify one thing that makes this a knockout nomination.

The timeframe is for activity occurring in the last five years – this may include design, funding, program outcomes and/or delivery of impact.

Nominees remain confidential and only finalists and successful recipients are announced.

To nominate, you will need to:

• Address the selection criteria in Awards Force explaining what makes this an outstanding nomination
• Optional: Estimate the amount of philanthropic investment – financial and non-financial.

Please note: no payment is required or requested at any stage of the nomination process – entries are free.
