Nominations are now being accepted for a global prize that honors innovation in the water sector, according to a report from fundsforNGOs. The call for nominations was published on Friday, August 21, 2026, and is directed at individuals, organizations, or projects working on novel water-related solutions. The prize aims to spotlight creative approaches to water challenges on an international scale.
The announcement, carried by fundsforNGOs, does not specify the prize’s monetary value, eligibility criteria, or the exact deadline for submissions. However, the outlet’s report indicates that the award is global in scope, meaning applicants from multiple regions are likely encouraged to participate. The focus on "innovation" suggests that the selection committee may prioritize new technologies, processes, or community-led models rather than established infrastructure projects.
As with many international awards, interested parties will likely need to prepare detailed submissions outlining their work’s impact, scalability, and originality. FundsforNGOs, which regularly publishes opportunities for non-profits and social enterprises, serves as the primary source for this call. Potential nominees should monitor the outlet’s website for further details, as the original posting may be updated with additional guidelines or links to the official application portal.

What to watch next: Look for the prize’s official rules and submission window, which fundsforNGOs may publish in a follow-up announcement.
