Nominations are now being accepted for the Prime Minister’s Youth Awards for Excellence.
Since the inception of the Awards in 1998, these prestigious awards have been bestowed on young Jamaican nationals between 15 and 29 years old who are living here and in the diaspora.
Nominees must excel in the selected category, contribute to Jamaica’s development, have attained national or international recognition in their area of specialty, and must be of upstanding character.
State Minister in the Ministry of Education, Youth and Information Robert Morgan says the “Prime Minister’s Youth Awards for Excellence is a celebration of the nation’s inspirational young people who endeavour to make their country a better place”.
