The AGIR Award reflects the commitment of REN - Redes Energéticas Nacionais - in the field of Corporate Social Responsibility.
The award aims to encourage and support initiatives that respond to social problems. In 2014, the first edition of this initiative had job creation as its theme. In the following eight editions, the AGIR Award was dedicated, respectively, to active aging, the fight against poverty and social exclusion, the labour insertion of people with disabilities, the preservation of natural heritage, the fight against early school leaving and promotion of academic success, the promotion of employment for vulnerable people, Social Innovation in response to COVID and the Promotion of the environment, biodiversity and combating climate change.
In its 10th edition, the AGIR Award will be dedicated to "Promoting sustainable development", a theme that reflects our commitment to the 2030 Agenda, based on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, promote prosperity and well-being for all, protect the environment and combat climate change. We will thus reward the three projects that stand out in this context.
The AGIR Award is aimed at associations, companies and non-profit organizations. The first place project is awarded a monetary value of thirty thousand euros, the second fifteen thousand euros and the third five thousand euros. The selection is the responsibility of REN in partnership with Stone Soup Consulting, which will follow up and monitor the use of the funds donated to each supported project, as well as assessing the real social impact of REN's support for each project.
