Previous Winners Leading the Way
Past recipients of the Cisco Youth Leadership Award have showcased remarkable innovation and dedication in their efforts to drive positive change. From providing essential services to schoolchildren in Kenya and healthcare access to children in India to supplying clean water to communities in Rwanda and neighboring regions, these youth leaders have demonstrated that transformative change is possible. Moreover, they have developed technologies to empower women in agriculture and reduce food waste in India.
The Importance of Youth Voices
Millie Bobby Brown, the actress and UNICEF ambassador, aptly captured the essence of this award when she stated, “Young people don’t want to be talked about. We want to do the talking.” The youth are not just the leaders of the future; they are leaders of today, making tangible differences in the world. This award aims to listen to and support their voices, acknowledging that they are essential in the mission to end extreme poverty.
