The Shackleton Medal shines a light on the activists, scientists, explorers and communicators that are stepping forward to make a difference. A £10,000 prize and a hand-struck silver medal will awarded to the person judged to have done the most to protect the polar regions so loved by Shackleton. The judging criteria reflect the character of Shackleton himself; we are looking to reward people who have shown courage, determination, ingenuity and leadership in their work.
Have your say on who should be the recipient in 2025.
More information and the nomination form are available from the shackleton.com website.
