Mediacorp wins Singapore Environmental Achievement Award 2026 for leadership and advocacy
Businesses that treat climate risk as business risk, not a trade-off against growth, will be the ones that thrive, says Environment and Sustainability Minister Grace Fu.
Mediacorp has been honoured with the Singapore Environmental Achievement Award 2026 for their leadership and advocacy in environmental stewardship. The awards, organised by the Singapore Environment Council (SEC), aim to celebrate organisations at various stages of their sustainability journeys. Environment and Sustainability Minister Grace Fu emphasised that businesses play a vital role in protecting Singapore and its citizens from climate change.
She stated that companies must view climate risk as a business risk and sustainability as a business opportunity, navigating trade-offs between near-term costs and long-term competitiveness, productivity and environmental impact, and the needs of workers and consumers. Mediacorp was commended for embedding sustainability across its operations and content, reducing its environmental impact, raising public awareness, and encouraging action in support of Singapore's sustainability goals.
Through journalism, documentaries, and digital content, Mediacorp brings complex environmental issues to the public's attention, inspiring people to understand and act on climate change, the circular economy, and sustainable living. The SEC chairman, Isabella Huang-Loh, stressed that the future of sustainability lies in turning ideas into action and action into lasting change, and that the awards recognise a wide range of achievements, inspiring organisations to embed sustainability into their primary capabilities.
