UNIEF Awards

Recognising public leadership and contribution to the global digital economy

The UNIEF Awards honour ministers, public officials, institutions, and distinguished individuals who have made meaningful contributions to the development of a trust-based, inclusive, and sustainable digital economy.

The Awards focus on:

Public leadership and policy impact
Advancement of digital trade cooperation
Strengthening trust, integrity, and international dialogue

The UNIEF Awards are typically organised in proximity to the United Nations General Assembly, either one week before or one week after UNGA, in order to align with the global diplomatic calendar and facilitate high-level participation.

The Awards are non-commercial and values-driven, recognising contribution rather than promotion.
