National winners!

The OFC team is over the moon after we took home the Award for Excellence in Policy and Education at the 2021 National Awards for Excellence. This award builds on our win at the Victorian State awards in 2019.

The national award provides fantastic recognition of our 2020 competition, run during Melbourne’s Stage 4 Covid lockdowns with an international field of competitors, as well as our original 2018 Our Future Cities interdisciplinary program.

We would like to extend our thanks to all the individuals and organisations who contributed to the success of the Our Future Cities program. With a special mention to our partners Loci Environment & Place, the CRC for Water Sensitive Cities, Whitehorse City Council, E2Designlab, the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning and the Port Phillip Bay Fund.

Thanks and congratulations to all the other winners and finalists!
