The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award supports the next
generation to find their purpose, passion and place in the world.
As they set out to find their purpose, passion and place in the
world, today’s young people face a broad range of challenges. They are
bombarded by information, expectation and uncertainty. They are growing up with
complexities and challenges unseen by the previous generations. If they are to
succeed, they need the skills, resilience and understanding to help them take
on whatever life may throw their way. The responsibility lies with all of us to
inspire young people to unlock their potential, and ensure they are better
equipped with the soft – or universal – skills needed to strive.
The Award operates in more than 130 countries and territories,
helping to inspire millions of young people. And it’s not limited by the
boundaries of one programme or place.
Who can Operate the Award

Why should you operate the Award
The aim of education is to develop the human faculty. The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award programme speeds up this development. It helps the participants to transform themselves into holistically developed individual human being. Running the Award brings benefits not only for the participants but also for the institution itself.
