In 2016, the Thailand Green Excellence Awards were presented at the World Travel Market in London — recognizing organizations that promote sustainable tourism and environmental protection. Winners included Mai Khao Marine Turtle Foundation, Andaman Discoveries, Elephant Hills and Trash Hero. The ceremony was hosted by Princess Ubolratana.
Current Status in 2025
As of 2025, no new Thailand Green Excellence Awards have been announced. According to public data and news reports, the contest has not been held recently or results have not been published.
New Recognition Formats
Today, Thai environmental initiatives are more visible in other international contests, such as:
- Asia Responsible Enterprise Awards (AREA) — in 2025, 81 ESG champions were recognized across Asia, including several Thai organizations.
Thai winners in the Green Leadership category:
- C&G Environmental Protection (Thailand)
- EGCO Group
- ThaiKoon Steel
Conclusion
The Thailand Green Excellence Awards were a milestone in promoting sustainable tourism, but as of 2025, the contest has not been active. Its place has been taken by global ESG recognition programs.
Organizations like Mai Khao Marine Turtle Foundation, Andaman Discoveries, Elephant Hills and Trash Hero remain strong examples of environmental leadership and responsible travel in Thailand.
