A Sustainable Green Growth Prize is given annually to cities and urban communities who have demonstrated foresight, good governance, and innovation when it comes to addressing the numerous challenges inherent to creating liveable and sustainable cities. Since 2025, this prize has recognized cities that have made extraordinary contributions to society while considering economic, environmental, and social aspects in their city development strategies.
Winning the Sustainable Global Cities Prize provides cities with not only financial incentive, but also an opportunity to showcase best practices in city planning and management – something which helps attract international investment and tourism. Awarded biennially to cities who have shown exceptional achievement in creating vibrant sustainable cities; as well as city planners/designers who have achieved excellence in creating them.
SGPs are an increasingly popular betting type as they offer potential for big payouts and are promoted widely by sportsbooks. Unfortunately, their structure and correlation of outcomes mean they typically offer lower payouts than traditional parlays with equal number of legs; sportsbooks must adjust odds and payouts accordingly in order to reflect this interconnected nature of bet.
Although popular, same game parlays can be risky for bettors. Their high degree of volatility and propensity to produce large losses means the average bettor will typically lose their wagers more frequently than they win them; furthermore, chasing large payouts can fuel problematic gambling behaviors, leading to financial instability as well as neglect of important aspects of life such as family and friendships.
Same Game Parlays are increasingly popular with gamblers as a means to winning big with multiple events at once. Unfortunately, they are not suitable for everyone and can have detrimental consequences to one’s health and well-being – if this applies to you or someone you know it’s crucial that professional help be sought immediately in order to reduce risk of gambling addiction and limit any associated health consequences.
Singapore boasts many other prizes to be won in addition to the SGP Prize. One such prize is the NUS Singapore History Prize – a biannual award which recognizes scholars working on Singapore history research. Lauriston Sharp was one of the founders of SEAP. This prize honors their memory by rewarding doctoral students who have completed dissertations while contributing to Southeast Asia studies. Its value of S$100,000 makes this prize one of the highest at NUS in history and will enable recipients to use it towards tuition or living expenses. A panel comprised of faculty and academics from Centre for Liveable Cities and Department of History will select its winner each year; entry is open to any NUS student who has completed his or her dissertation by December.
