Continuing with the annual Recognitions for Excellence in SIP Reporting, we are pleased to publish the outstanding SIP Reports for 2023. All reports submitted between 1 May 2022 - 1 May 2023 were considered.
To be considered, reports needed to have fulfilled SIP policy requirements including:
- A letter signed by the highest executive of the organisation expressing continued commitment to PRME
- A description of practical actions (i.e., disclosure of any relevant policies, procedures, activities) that the institution has taken to implement one or more Principles during the past 24 months
- An assessment of outcomes (i.e., the degree to which previously outlined goals were met, or other qualitative or quantitative evaluation of results)
- Key, specific objectives for the next 24-month period with regard to the implementation of the Principle(s)
As a reminder, there are two important considerations to identifying qualifying reports.
- It is the quality of the reporting on progress that is considered, not the quality of the initiatives outlined.
- These recognitions are for reports that specifically share information on progress in relation to PRME (although that is not to say that they cannot also include other reporting initiatives).

As per tradition, the 2022 edition of the Recognition Awards for SIP Excellence were presented at the 2022 Virtual PRME Global Forum on 3 June. There were 256 SIP Reports submitted since the last recognitions were given out in June 2021, in the period between May 1st, 2021, to May 1st, 2022. These were the reports taken into consideration for this year's awards.
All qualifying reports were read during the months of April and May, by a Peer Review Committee consisting of 22 members of the community from 13 countries, to determine eligibility. To be considered, reports needed to have fulfilled SIP policy requirements including:
- A letter signed by the highest executive of the organisation expressing continued commitment to PRME. Note that SIPs with letters that were unsigned were still considered.
- A description of practical actions (i.e., disclosure of any relevant policies, procedures, activities) that the institution has taken to implement one or more Principles during the past 24 months (since signing up to PRME or since last submission of SIP)
- An assessment of outcomes (i.e., the degree to which previously outlined goals were met, or other qualitative or quantitative evaluation of results)
- Key, specific objectives for the next 24-month period with regard to the implementation of the Principle(s). Concrete strategies and timelines are encouraged.

Four awards for excellence in Sharing Information on Progress (SIP) reporting were announced during the 2021 Virtual PRME Global Forum.
Shortlisted reports were reviewed by a Peer Review Group made up of 17 Signatories from 14 countries, as well as 4 student reviewers from 3 countries. The process was coordinated by Giselle Weybrecht.
All reviewed reports were submitted between May 1st, 2020 and May 1st, 2021 and needed to fulfill all SIP policy requirements in order to qualify
Reports are recognized for:
- Quality of reporting, not the quality of what is reported.
- How they share information on progress in relation to PRME.

Four awards for excellence in SIP reporting were announced during the 2020 Virtual PRME Global Forum.
Held on the second day of the Forum, the recognition was given to four PRME Champion schools for their high-quality SIP Reports.
The recognized institutions, listed below by category, were selected by a peer review group under the guidance of Giselle Weybrecht, author, Editor to the PRiMEtime Blog and expert in sustainable business education. SIP Recognitions have become a tradition of each PRME Global Forum, and are intended to spotlight significant achievements in reporting progress against the Six Principles at higher education signatories to the Principles for Responsible Management Education.
