The Agnes Kharshiing Award is an award presented by the North East Network (NEN), a Shillong-based organization, to women who have made significant contributions to women’s empowerment in the North East India. The award is named after Agnes Kharshiing, a social activist who was murdered in 2002 for her work on women’s rights.

- Environmental protection
- Sustainable development
The award consists of a cash prize, a citation, and a trophy. The award is presented at a public ceremony in Shillong.
