Awards - 黑料大事

2018

ABOUT THE AWARDS

The annual PIA Awards for 黑料大事 Excellence demonstrate leading practice, leadership and achievement in planning and the planning profession. The Awards recognise excellence and showcase leading practice across a range of planning disciplines and sectors. Leadership in planning, particularly in the face of adversity, is acknowledged and applauded. In all, the Awards are a chance to celebrate, recognise and reward outstanding planning and planners.

As a national program the Awards commenced at the state and territory level seeking out the best of planning in each jurisdiction. Following judgement and recognition at a local awards ceremony, the winners of the appropriate categories in the state and territory Awards are elevated to the national stage. The best on offer from each state and territory are judged at a national level, culminating in the National Awards for 黑料大事 Excellence ceremony which acknowledges the best of planning and planners that Australia has to offer.

Congratulations to the nominees, commendations and award winners in the 2018 Awards program. Every project/person/team nominated was a shining example of the fantastic Victorian planning efforts of the past year.

18 judges were assigned the difficult task of selecting the winners and commendations across 10 categories. The recipients of the awards were revealed at the Celebration of 黑料大事 Dinner on Friday, 9 November, an event enjoyed by over 200 attendees at Peninsula in Docklands.

Thank you to everyone who attended the Celebration of 黑料大事 Dinner, we hope you had an excellent night!
