EU Green Capital & EU Green Leaf Awards

The European Green Capital & Leaf Awards have the mission to increase the number of cities that manage the transition to a green and healthy place for citizens to have a better quality of life. The winners of the Awards show excellence in their green transition and act as role models for other cities.

Both offer clear guidelines to improve a city’s performance and a supportive community to keep it running. The Awards promote and reward the efforts of cities that are committed to improving the urban environment and follow the ambitious goals under the European Green Deal and more specifically the Zero Pollution Action Plan, the Circular Economy Action Plan and the Biodiversity Strategy.
