For over twenty years, the Award has recognized the work of communicators, journalists, organizations, companies, and professionals who contribute to spreading a more informed environmental culture, bringing complex issues to the general public with clear, accessible, and effective language. For the 2026 edition, the competing categories are: Communicating Climate Change, a confirmed category that includes reports, campaigns, and projects on climate change at the national and international level. Communicating Food Waste will be the theme for this 2026 edition, responding to an increasingly evident urgency. Every year, 1.05 billion tons of food is wasted globally, equivalent to 19% of the total produced. Of this, 60% occurs at the household level. Furthermore, food waste generates 8-10% of global greenhouse gas emissions.

The winner of the first two categories will be chosen by the AICA Scientific Committee and a popular vote, which will be held in the weeks preceding the awards ceremony.
