Environmental Humanities and Social Sciences

The BBVA Foundation Biophilia Award for Environmental Communication was launched in 2019 with the aim of distinguishing the efforts of professionals and organizations in any country that have contributed exceptionally to improving public understanding and awareness of environmental issues.

In 2024 the award’s conceptual parameter was expanded and further delineated by expressly and preferentially including contributions from the realms of the humanities and social sciences that help reframe humankind’s relationship with nature. The aim is to recognize narratives and interpretations which, while being reliant on or compatible with environmental science knowledge, contribute from these disciplines to shaping the perspectives, conceptual frameworks and values of society as a whole with regard to the environment.

In this way, the Biophilia Award distinguishes contributions to the understanding and preservation of life in all its forms, including its biological and physical framework.
