The Pete Hay Environmental Politics Prize is awarded annually to the best refereed APSA conference paper on the topic of Environmental Politics or Policy. The winner is announced during the annual meeting at the APSA conference. An Honourable Mention can be given to a paper that comes a very close second.
The prize is named after Dr Pete Hay, a trailblazer in the research and scholarship of environmental politics and policy in Australia and the founding convenor of the Ecopolitics Association of Australasia. Pete chairs the prize selection panel.
The inaugural winner of the prize, announced at the 2011 APSA conference in Canberra, was Delphine Rabet from the University of Sydney. The paper was a worthy winner in a tight field and a shortlist of four with an Honourable Mention going to Andy Scerri of RMIT. The papers can be accessed by clicking on the links below.
