Europe is an urban society with many environmental challenges to face. The European Commission has long recognised the important role that local authorities play in improving the environment, and their high level of commitment to genuine progress.
The European Green Leaf Award has been conceived as an initiative to promote and reward these efforts.
The Award participates in the amplification of green actions in European cities and thus joins the ambitions of the European Green Deal, the New European Bauhaus and the Zero Pollution Action Plan.
