Inspire Education Group has achieved international recognition by winning a Green World Environment Award in the global search for the world’s greenest countries, companies, and communities. IEG's “A Circular Solution for Waste Management” project was entered in the Education & Training sector within the Waste Management category.
The project saw IEG transform disused kitchen units and classroom worktops into fully functional, zero-waste recycling stations across its campuses — eliminating landfill use, minimising carbon emissions, and achieving cost savings of over 97% per unit. By avoiding conventional high-cost procurement, the project became a powerful example of how creative reuse can deliver high-impact, low-cost sustainability infrastructure.
Selected from more than 500 nominations worldwide, IEG was presented with a prestigious Green World Award trophy and certificate at a glittering presentation ceremony to be held at the iconic Cardiff Castle, Wales, on April 13, 2026.
As part of this achievement, IEG has been invited to accept Green World Ambassador status, which includes the opportunity to have their award-winning project published in The Green Book — the only international work of reference on environmental best practice — so that organisations around the world can learn from their success.
The Green World Awards are organised by The Green Organisation, an international, independent, non-political, non-profit environment group dedicated to recognising, rewarding, and promoting environmental excellence across the globe. In keeping with the environmental values at the heart of the awards, trees will be planted to offset the carbon footprint created by the prizegiving event.
