The Quarry Life Award is a scientific and education competition, takes place every three years and runs simultaneously at national and international levels. Its aim is to raise the awareness of the ecological value of extraction sites and sharing new best practices.
Currently, biodiversity projects are carried out in our quarries around the world.
We will award international prizes up to € 30,000 in 2022.
The countdown is on! The deadline for submitting the Final Report is only one month away. The deadline for uploading the Final Report is 15th September 2022.
We are pleased to announce that Prof. Dr. Ani Mardiastuti has joined the International Jury of the fifth edition of the Quarry Life Award.
