The Duke of Edinburgh's Award is a youth awards program founded by Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh in 1956. It encourages young people aged 14 to 24 to develop skills, engage in physical activities, volunteer in their communities, and embark on adventurous journeys. Participants can earn awards at three levels: Bronze, Silver, and Gold, each requiring different commitments and achievements. Completing the award helps young people build confidence, resilience, and teamwork skills. It also provides valuable experiences that can enhance their resumes and university applications. Many schools and organizations support the program, making it accessible to a wide range of participants.
