Applications open from 29 April and will close at 12:00 midnight AEST 14 June 2026. Continuing our process from last year, our judges will select the top three entries in each category, which will then go through to a public vote, so our wider Canon community can also have their say! The top three finalists will be selected based on the environmental and social merits of their organisation, as well as the importance of Canon technology in ensuring their initiatives success.
