Impact
Here you will find very detailed information on the impact of the Duke Award on young people and our society.
Youth Ambassadors
The Youth Ambassadors are the voice of the young people in the Duke Award. They represent the programme at events, advise on the development of the association, initiate their own projects and volunteer for social participation and sustainable changes. Learn more about their work here.
International Gold Event
The International Gold Event (IGE) takes place every three years and is a gathering of young people who have completed the Duke Program at the Gold level and whose vision is to work together to help solve societal challenges.
Alumni
The Duke Award is often just the beginning. The alumni network brings together people who have overcome challenges, taken on responsibilities, and gained valuable experience. Here, new connections are formed, and shared ideas and projects emerge that have an impact far beyond the award itself. Learn more about our alumni network here.
Duke Shop
Whether it’s a hoodie, T-shirt, or other merchandise: In our Duke Shop, you’ll find products that show your affiliation with the Duke community. Schools also have the option to incorporate their own school logo. Discover our selection here.
Transparency
Transparency is important to us. That is why we have joined the Transparent Civil Society Initiative and make key information about our work publicly available. Learn more here.
