2025 H & M Foundation Global Change Award (€200,000 Grant) Deadline: 15 November, 2024
Applications are now open for the 2025 H & M Foundation Global Change Award. The H & M Foundation Global Change Award is looking for changemakers who can help decarbonise fashion. The aim is to propel the textile industry towards net-zero emissions by accelerating innovation that benefits both people and the planet. The H&M Foundation launched the Global Change Award – called The Nobel Prize of Fashion – as the first innovation challenge of its kind in 2015. Since then, 46 innovations have received support and a combined grant of 8 million euros from the Global Change Award. And the grant is just one perk of winning the Global Change Award.
Benefits
- The winners each receive €200,000 and are celebrated and awarded at the iconic Stockholm City Hall, the home of the Nobel Prize, where they are also connected to the wider industry. They also enter a yearlong Changemaker Programme provided by the H&M Foundation in collaboration with our strategic partners Accenture and KTH Royal Institute of Technology.
The GCA operates within four key areas of transformation that contribute to our strategic direction in a systemic way. The below descriptions within these areas are examples but should not be taken as exhaustive.
- Sustainable materials and processes – Low energy materials and new and recycled fibres, sustainable energy practices, alternative wet processes, treatments and finishes and new construction techniques.
- Responsible production – Solutions within renewable energy, energy efficiency, prediction modelling, traceability, on-demand, waste management and zero-waste
- Mindful consumption – Solutions on how to reshape demand, garment care, extending garment life cycles, recycling solutions, and circular business models
- Wildcards – Impactful solutions and drivers we haven’t considered or been made aware of but speak to the overarching mission of the GCA.
