Youth of the Year 2024 - Honoring the Legacy of Peer Educator Reaksa Rom
Join us in commemorating the enduring spirit of Reaksa Rom, a remarkable figure from Cambodia who wholeheartedly served as a dedicated member and licensed trainer of Y-PEER Asia Pacific. In 2022, we initiated the Youth Award to pay tribute to Reaksa’s exceptional contributions. Since 2022, we have proudly honoured two outstanding individuals every year, and in 2024 as well, we continued this tradition with the ‘Youth of the Year 2024’ award.
This award is a collaborative endeavour orchestrated by Y-PEER Asia Pacific Center in partnership with Me For Myself Campaign, Youthday.space, Asia Pacific Hub for PEER-Education, Working Group on Disabilities and 2030 Agenda, Youthlead, Robert Carr Fund, and Livenow Campaign. The primary goal is to acknowledge and celebrate the extraordinary efforts of young individuals who are effecting positive change in diverse sectors.

This award is open to young people aged 18-29 from the Asia Pacific region. We are actively seeking candidates engaged in sectors such as Health, Environment, HIV, Youth Policies, and other areas related to Youth Issues, with a particular emphasis on Peer Education.
