SSPH+ is a National Nomination Body of the 5th edition of the Frontiers Planet Prize (FPP). We encourage scientific leaders to submit a qualifying research article co-authored in peer reviewed literature within 2 years prior to the launch of the FPP competition (i.e., date of acceptance: 1 November 2024 to 31 October 2026). Make sure to select a paper in line with the prize criteria.
The Frontiers Planet Prize awards a National Champion for each participating country and offers three prizes of CHF 1 million each to three International Champions, selected by an independent Jury of 100.
The prize welcomes breakthrough research across all disciplines, on condition it is focused on planetary boundaries and presents original research findings or insightful reviews and syntheses that help to reduce the destabilization of the Earth system.
