Climate Change Commission: Epilepsy and climate action awards

10 April, 2023

The ILAE Climate Change Commission invites nominations for the 2023 'Epilepsy and Climate Action awards'. Through these awards, the commission intends to recognize work in the field and raise awareness about the impacts of climate change on people with epilepsy.

There are two awards this year, in the following categories:

  1. An individual or group showing strong leadership in the field of epilepsy and climate change, for example through practical initiatives and actions.
  2. An individual or group generating high quality research on climate change and epilepsy

Anyone can submit a nomination. Nominations should be submitted only in one category. Self-nominations are permitted. 

Submission deadline: 21 May 2023 at 21:00 BST

Winners will be notified by email in late May 2023 and prizes awarded at the International Epilepsy Congress 2023 in Dublin, Ireland, either in person or remotely.

In case of any queries, please contact Kathryn Hodgson.
