Young Citizen's Award

Young Citizen Award


Rotary GB&I Young Citizen Award

Growing Engagement
Club and district engagement with Rotary Young Citizen has been growing over the past 13 years, with more and more Rotarians getting involved with this amazing scheme. We hope that even more of the Rotary community will nominate the outstanding young people in their area in 2019/20 and give them the national recognition that they deserve.

Rotary Young Citizen Peacemaker Award – Nomination Form (as above)
For a second year, we are delighted to offer the Rotary Young Citizen Peacemaker Award, reflecting Rotary’s area of focus on Peace and Conflict Prevention/Resolution, to recognise young people, aged under 25, who have made a significant contribution by building peace and understanding, whether in their school, local community, by for example helping tackle anti-social behavior and
youth crime, perhaps as peer mentors, or with a peace project internationally. Again, nominations can be for an individual or group.
Rotary Young Citizen Sporting Hero Award – Nomination Form (as above)
This year, we are introducing a new Award, the inaugural Rotary Young Citizen Sporting Hero Award 2020 to recognise and highlight the achievements and contribution, as a positive role model to others, of a sports participant or a group or an individual or group who is enabling others to participate in sport. This gives the chance to nominate someone or a group who has achieved exceptional things in the world of sport, be it able-bodied or DisAbility sport, for example wheelchair sport. The criteria for this award are:
  • Aged 25 years of age or under.
  • Open to an individual or group.
  • Must have made a positive social impact on a community through action, and be a positive role model for others.
  • Must be able to demonstrate the importance of sport in transforming their life and/or other lives.
  • Sports participant(s) nominated must have shown a determination, dedication and commitment in their chosen sport(s).
The Rotary Young Citizen Awards are internally managed by the RotaryGBI Humanitarian Team (Youth) with one Rotarian working as the responsible liaison for club and other contact. The Rotarian liaison for 2019/20 is Eve Conway
