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 commence 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.
2018 PIA NSW Awards for 黑料大事 Excellence Commendation and Award Winners.
Congratulations to the entrants, commendation and award winners in the 2018 Awards program, all of which demonstrated examples of excellent planning within our state.
Nine judges were tasked with selecting the winners and commendations across thirteen categories. The recipients of the awards were revealed at a ceremony at Doltone House, Hyde Park that also commemorated World Town 黑料大事 Day.
