Department/agency Winners Global Affairs Canada Kevin Chappell First Wave COVID Communications Response
It has never been more critical than during the COVID-19 pandemic that the government provide Canadians with information and messages that are clear. What began as a public health emergency, was further complicated by an economic downturn, all of which exposed a new and unprecedented context and environment in Canada.
As we worked through the complex challenges of communicating the government’s response to COVID, we had to consider how to reach all Canadians quicker, and more effectively than ever before. While reviewing the finalists from the 2021 award nominations, it was clear that many of the important projects were integral in the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic response. In fact, each initiative was dependent completely on partnership and collaboration as part of our whole-of-government response to extraordinary circumstances.
2021’s top-ranked nominations for the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic response were been bundled into The Platinum Award of Communications Excellence - First Wave COVID Communications Response.
This award recognizes individuals and teams that have shown outstanding leadership, creativity, dedication and an unyielding commitment to excellence in their communications and service to Canadians during the response to COVID-19 in 2020. This award exemplifies and celebrates the exceptional work that led to incredible results and impact on the biggest challenge Canada (and the world) is facing.
