Since its launch in 2023, E.ON’s\u00a0Champions of Earth<\/em>\u00a0competition has engaged one in ten kindergartens and schools in Hungary. While that reach is a significant, the programme\u2019s greatest value lies in how it reshapes kids\u2019 ability to think about environmental problems. With E.ON’s support, feelings of uncertainty about the future are being transformed into action through inventive, student-led sustainability projects.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The numbers tell a convincing story. Each year, the contest, which recently held its annual awards ceremony, has grown into a nationwide movement since it was first announced. In fact, this year’s competition received around 350 entries. Of those, 13 projects have been selected each to receive a maximum of HUF 2.5 million in funding. Since 2023, the judging committee has reviewed a total of 1,200 entries, with 42 educational institutions, from kindergartens to primary and secondary schools, having been collectively awarded HUF 75 million.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Entries are evaluated by renowned experts and public figures working to shape environmental awareness. The jury panel includes climate researcher and IPCC Vice-Chair\u00a0Dr Di\u00e1na \u00dcrge-Vorsatz<\/strong>, journalist and climate communications expert\u00a0R\u00e9ka Nagy<\/strong>, Managing Director of Planet Fanatics\u2019 Network,\u00a0Katalin Szomol\u00e1nyi<\/strong>, actress\u00a0Lia Pokorny<\/strong>, who has authored a collection of sustainable recipes, and jury chair\u00a0Guntram W\u00fcrzberg<\/strong>, President and CEO of E.ON Hung\u00e1ria Group.<\/p>\n

Their task is not easy, as the number of imaginative, detailed and feasible projects always exceeds the number of available awards. Many experienced participants return to the competition year after year, and the teachers get to gain more experience during the professional knowledge-sharing days. Because the contest encourages projects that involve the active participation of parents and local communities, its impact on environmental awareness is even greater.<\/p>\n
