The Community Services Department is proud to announce that CultureLink’s Children and Youth Centre has become a Unit Award for the Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award – THE WORLD’S LEADING YOUTH ACHIEVEMENT AWARD FOR CANADIAN YOUTH!

The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award is a global non-formal education framework which challenges young people to discover their potential and find their purpose, passion and place in the world. Through this partnership, we will give every young Canadian aged 14 to 24 a supportive self-development tool that deepens awareness, builds confidence, broadens skills and impels them into experiences that further their development as active, responsible citizens.

The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award is a global framework that allows young people to determine what they are passionate about, regardless of their background, culture or access to resources.
