King Abdullah II Award for Youth Innovation and Achievement for Young Arabs

Distinguished young leaders in the Arab region making positive impact over the communities they have been working with can participate in the King Abdullah II Award for Youth Innovation and Achievement. Managed by the King Abdullah II Fund for Development (KAFD), the award recognizes the efforts of young people by providing them with much needed support so that they are able to continue with good work and promote the concept of active citizenship. "Active Citizenship is a process that enables citizens to exercise both their rights and responsibilities in a balanced way, guided by moral and social responsibility, political literacy and community involvement. Active Citizenship amongst youth is expressed through the initiatives of individuals and groups in finding innovative solutions that contribute to social development through the skills of enquiry and communication, participation and responsible action."
