October 14th, 2025

To all media organizations, production houses, and independent producers,

We are pleased to share that the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union (ABU) is now accepting entries for the second edition of the Together for People, Planet, Peace (T4P) Media Awards—an initiative that celebrates outstanding media content promoting sustainability, inclusion, and a culture of peace across the region.

The T4P Media Awards recognize compelling stories that inspire sustainable living, social justice, inclusion, and equal opportunity. The organizers seek content that uplifts, educates, and motivates audiences—fostering environmental awareness, empathy, and community resilience.

Eligible entries may cover a wide range of topics under three core themes:

  • Planet – Embracing sustainable living
  • People – Fostering inclusivity and diversity
  • Peace – Promoting harmony and understanding

The competition is open to media organizations, production houses, and independent producers worldwide. While the official submission deadline is 15 October 2025, entries will continue to be accepted until 30 October 2025.

A distinguished international jury comprising experienced media professionals and practitioners in sustainability, diversity, and peacebuilding will evaluate the submissions. The judging process will be conducted online.

The winners of the 2025 T4P Media Awards will be announced during the 9th ABU Media Summit on Climate Action and Disaster Preparedness, scheduled for 25 November 2025 in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
