Do you know a young person who has made a difference in your school or community or who has inspired others?
Each year, WCIA and Academi Heddwch recognise the enterprising efforts of young people seeking to build a better world, through the Young Peacemakers Awards – bestowed at the prestigious Llangollen International Eisteddfod.
WCIA are delighted to share results of the 2025 awards here, alongside explanatory further information about the process below. The 2026 Awards will open circa March 2026.
