IPRA Golden World Awards

The Golden World Awards is an annual global awards ceremony organised by the International Public Relations Association (IPRA) to recognise public relations achievements around the world across different categories.[1] Established in 1990, the Golden World Awards (also dubbed as the 'Oscars of PR') has 65 categories of In-house and Agency entries judged separately, and honours the overall highest standards of each year with the IPRA Grand Prix for Excellence award.

Entry criteria

In the preliminary stage of judging the jury will only consider the programme summaries submitted so great care must be taken in the preparation. Its length is limited to twelve hundred words (1,200) and must be entirely in English.[2]

All entries are submitted online to the IPRA secretariat and must include an opening 100-word statement describing why the programme should be deemed worthy of an award. Under separate headlines, each entry should then address all of these five areas:

  1. Statement of Problem/Opportunity
  2. Research
  3. Planning
  4. Execution
  5. Campaign Outcomes / Monitoring and Evaluation

Supporting documents will also need to be submitted after the entry is shortlisted by a panel of judges at the preliminary round of judging.

Award categories

For each of the categories below Agency and Inhouse entries will be judged separately and separate awards made. In addition, the overall highest achievement of each year is awarded the 'Grand Prix for Excellence'.
