ISC Awards - ISCouncil

Your invitation

The 2026 Infrastructure Sustainability Council Awards continue the IS Council’s well-established tradition of advancing leadership in sustainability by celebrating best practice across the Australia and New Zealand infrastructure sectors.

It is my great pleasure to invite you to enter the 2026 Infrastructure Sustainability Council Awards.

This year’s awards will exemplify excellence in sustainability across environmental, social, governance, and economic quadruple bottom line outcomes and outstanding contributions to market transformation at organisational, systemic and societal levels.

We look forward to receiving your entries and having you join other industry leaders in demonstrating how you are delivering the outcomes and transformations needed to shape lives positively through infrastructure. Together, we can build a world class sustainable industry to meet the formidable challenges and opportunities of this decade.
