Another fundamental part of Creative Conscience’s platform is their annual awards scheme. Open to students and recent graduates from around the world; the Creative Conscience Awards showcase the work of young creatives as they innovatively tackle an issue that they’re passionate about. These matters range from confronting the climate crisis, conscious consumption, equality and mental health. An annual awards evening celebrates the projects that these individuals create and the impact they are making across the world.
On the motivations of the platform, Creative Conscience founder Chrissy Levett says “Creative Conscience showcases as many of the best projects as we can in order to celebrate talent and keep people motivated to continue on this path of impact. Wherever possible we’ll help get projects off the ground with coaching, mentorship, connections, support and even a little funding sometimes. We do what we can, when we can, to the best of our ability.”
The charity has continued to grow from strength to strength since its founding in 2012 and shows no signs of slowing down. Over this time the scheme has received more than 5,000 purpose-driven projects from more than 90 nationalities. Chrissy says “Now’s the time. The world is finally waking up and we’re ready. We want every institution, brand, organisation, government to embed creativity for social and environmental impact and to build it into its core to put people and planet first and to help reimagine a world fit for everyone’s future.”
