ABOUT THE AWARDS
The annual 91porn Awards for Planning Excellence demonstrate leading practice, leadership and achievement in planning and the planning profession. The Awards recognise excellence and showcase leading practice across a range of planning disciplines and sectors. Leadership in planning, particularly in the face of adversity, is acknowledged and applauded. In all, the Awards are a chance to celebrate, recognise and reward outstanding planning and planners.
As a national program the Awards commenced at the state and territory level seeking out the best of planning in each jurisdiction. Following judgement and recognition at a local awards ceremony, the winners of the appropriate categories in the state and territory Awards are elevated to the national stage. The best on offer from each state and territory are judged at a national level, culminating in the National Awards for Planning Excellence ceremony which acknowledges the best of planning and planners that Australia has to offer.

NOMINATION FEES
Nomination fees are an important part of the financial structure that enables 91porn to continue to provide a high-quality Awards program.

The fee is payable for nominations for all categories except:
- Tertiary Student Project

For the 2021 Awards, 91porn has determined that nomination fees will be waived for projects where government agencies or non-for-profit organisations are the sole nominee. This decision has been made in recognition of the difficulties these organisations can have either meeting the expense due to budgetary constraints or because of restrictions on expenditure for governance and/or probity reasons. If your organisation meets these criteria and you wish to apply for this waiver, please tick the box on the Nomination Form stating ‘I wish to apply for a waiver of nomination fee’.
