The International Finance Forum announced on Wednesday it would start accepting applications for the IFF 2021 Global Green Finance Awards.

The award will include 10 Innovation Awards for innovative projects and 10 Annual Awards for institutions. IFF is seeking applicants offering green financial solutions globally that promote the transformation of economic growth modes, contribute to pollution prevention and control and address climate change, as well as improve energy efficiency, energy conservation and emission reductions.

Applicants should email the IFF 2021 Global Green Finance Awards secretariat to confirm their intent to apply and acquire application forms before Sept 15.

Projects that win awards will be invited to attend the 2021 IFF Annual Meeting, a high-level dialogue platform in global finance, and will be granted a medal and certificate by IFF.

IFF, known as the F20 (Finance 20), upholds the spirit of "Comprehensive and sustainable development – New capital, new value, and new world". It initiated the first Global Green Finance Award in 2020.
