About Plain Language Awards

The Plain Language Awards, organized by the WriteMark Plain English Awards Trust, is an annual event that celebrates exceptional plain language communication in New Zealand and Australia. Founded by communications expert Lynda Harris, the awards aim to enhance the clarity of government and business documents, promote the benefits of plain language, and encourage organizations to prioritize clear communication. The initiative has played a significant role in raising awareness about clear writing and has contributed to advocacy efforts, including the introduction of New Zealand's Plain Language Act 2022. The awards feature an entry and judging process across 13 categories, with evaluations conducted by local and international experts. Events include ceremonies for announcing winners, acceptance speeches, and recognition for finalists. Public engagement is encouraged through awards like the Best Communication award, which is nominated by the public, and the humorous Brainstrain award, which highlights confusing communications. The organization also provides a newsletter for updates and welcomes sponsorship inquiries.
