ENGAGe Award

The ENGAGe Award is a new ENGAGe initiative, developed to recognise the efforts of ENGAGe members and celebrate innovation, creativity and excellence in gynaecological cancer patient advocacy and action. We would like to spotlight those projects that have made a real impact whether through raising awareness, prevention, care, or quality-of-life for those affected by gynaecological cancers.

If you know someone who is making a difference, or if that someone is you, you can nominate them from September 1, 2025 through this form. 

Nomination eligibility?

Any project developed by ENGAGe members can be nominated, including self-nominations. Nominees must have delivered at least one significant advocacy/engagement/campaign or initiative in the last 18 months on local, national, or international scale.

Winner selection process
The winner will be selected through a three-round voting process conducted by the ENGAGe Executive Group (EEG), the ESGO Council, and finally by ENGAGe members. All scores are combined and averaged to determine the result.

Judging criteria

  • Demonstrated impact: evidence of impact (eg.: improved awareness, access, quality of life, or meaningful patient engagement)
  • Innovation: novel approaches and creative thinking
  • Sustainability & Scalability: potential to grow or be replicated across the ENGAGe network
