Views taxonomy listing of terms linked via contextual path
You dont have to pass all these parameters via the URL. If you know the location or award from within your master view simply embed another View into the view passing it hidden or visible Fields in from the parent view. You want to use views_field_view to do this:


  This module allows you to embed a view as a field in a view. A new
  field handler is made available, so this can also be used in area
  (header/footer/empty) handlers as well as rows.
  
  This view handler can accept arguments from fields of the parent view
  using tokens and pass them into the child view for each row. Raw or
  rendered token values can be used, as well as static values.
  
  It's highly recommended to use this module in conjunction with views
  caching. Views Content cache and Cache Actions are good ways of
  caching views.
