DEADLINE: Planet Forward Storyfest Awards

Grand Prize: Travel with Lindblad Expeditions to the Galápagos Islands from July 18, 2025 to July 27, 2025.

There is no story more gripping than that of our changing planet — and the solutions to sustain it. While problems ranging from climate justice to conservation, from rising sea levels to increasing heat waves, from the continuing pandemic to our plastic addiction, we’re looking for the stories surrounding the people, ideas, and innovations moving the world toward a greener future.

The Planet Forward Storyfest Awards highlight the voices of students, seeking to understand and illuminate  innovations for how to best care for the earth. We are looking for stories that inspire, motivate, and drive change. Stories that are compelling, thought-provoking, and vibrantly stimulating. Be memorable, have an impact — and have fun.

The deadline to submit your story is February 10, 2025 at 11:59 PM EDT.
