Criteria

Outstanding youth leadership and project impact

“Outstanding leadership” means that you played a major leadership role in creating, organizing and implementing your project or campaign. We are looking for the person with the vision, motivation, and leadership skills that made the project or campaign work.

Selection Process

The PoA Award recipients are selected by an independent panel of judges, including activists, educators, journalists, and environmental advocates. The Selection Committee changes for each cycle of the PoA Awards. Each jury is made up of experts from a range of disciplines. Supported by a committee of PoA Awards alumni and a number of Institute staff, the Selection Committee ensures that award recipients are engaged in bold, visionary, and powerful leadership and activism.
