One Young World Politician of the Year Award 2024

The One Young World Politician of the Year Award 2024 application is open for young leaders aged 18-35. It seeks individuals passionate about creating positive change and engaging youth in politics. Winners will gain global recognition and be chosen by esteemed political experts.

The One Young World Summit in Montréal, Canada, from September 18-21, 2024, will be the stage for awarding three deserving winners with the prestigious One Young World Politician of the Year Award. Shockingly, statistics from the Inter-Parliamentary Union reveal a significant lack of young representation in global politics, with only 2.8% of parliamentarians worldwide under 30 and a mere 18.8% under 40. About 74% of upper chambers lack any MPs under 30, risking the disconnection of an entire generation from political processes.

To counteract this trend, the award winners, selected by an esteemed panel of international judges with unparalleled political understanding, will be those who have utilized their public office to enact positive change, particularly benefiting and representing young people within their communities and countries. This recognition not only celebrates their achievements but also aims to inspire greater youth engagement in shaping the future of politics. The One Young World Politician of the Year Award started in 2018 to honor outstanding young politicians aged 18-35 worldwide. Winners are chosen for their positive influence in their countries and how they’ve helped young people. It’s the first award, aiming to boost youth involvement in politics.
