As the year draws to close we give you a highlight of the recent Landscape Middle East Nature & Community Awards Abu Dhabi 2025 that we held on the 17th of November in the luxurious St Regis Hotel, Saadiyat Island Abu Dhabi, UAE. We brought together over 1200 industry professionals to recognize and honour outstanding achievements in landscape architecture, nature and community across the Middle East region. With more than 70 awards presented, spanning various categories, including Academic Excellence, Lifetime Achievement, Prominent Professionals, Rising Stars, Distinguished Organizations, and Green Infrastructure Award, Climate Resilient & Regenerative Landscape, Community Impact, Engagement & Inclusivity, Cultural Heritage & Living Landscapes, Smart Digital & Responsive Landscapes, Landscape Art Legacy & Play, Resource Efficiency & Circular Systems, Next Gen Vision-Student Award, Biodiversity & Educational Restoration, Vision in Progress-Unbuilt and Future Waterscapes in Progress.
One of the highlights of the evening was the announcement of a scholarship launched in strategic partnership with the American University of Beirut (AUB), Department of Landscape Design and Ecosystem Management. The Landscape Middle East Scholarship represents a landmark initiative in regional educational support, bringing academic excellence and professional leadership.
The Landscape Middle East Nature & Community Awards 2025 was a remarkable evening of celebration for the entire Middle East landscape industry. As we approach the end of 2025, we’d like to thank all of our readers and partners for your support throughout the year and wish you all a happy festive season and a prosperous New Year!
