The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award - Canada is the world’s leading youth achievement award, bringing together practical experiences and life skills to create committed global citizens and equipping young people for life. To date: over 500,000 young people from Canada and over 8 million youth in over 140 countries have been motivated to undertake a variety of voluntary and challenging activities. Our ambition is that every young Canadian aged 14 to 24 should have the opportunity to participate in the Award.
