With the new special category "Green" Aviation, the jury of the Hamburg Aviation Young Talent Award has been awarding prizes for sustainable ideas that could make flying "greener" since 2020.

The special prize is worth 800 euros.
The application phase is open until June 01, 23:59. The basic requirement for participation is that either the supervising company or the university is located in the Hamburg metropolitan region.
