Meet the EE 30 Under 30 Class of 2023!
Join us in congratulating this year's 31 (yes, 31!) EE 30 Under 30 awardees! This year’s applicants were so competitive that we couldn’t stop at 30.
This year’s awardees range in age from 17 to 30, hail from 20 countries, and are engaging and educating a wide range of audiences to tackle complex sustainability issues in their communities. From teaching the community about coral reef reproduction in Honduras to generating climate action through hackathons in the United States to piloting riparian land restoration using bamboo in Kenya, their collective work reaches more than 400,000 people each year, many of whom are on the frontlines of climate crises.
The Class of 2023 marks the eighth class of this program and this year’s awardees will join the global EE 30 Under 30 community of inspiring leaders, and will receive ongoing support through networking, peer mentoring, global recognition, and opportunities for professional development and grants.
