4 November 2025

We have some exciting news to share! The official website of the AU-EU Youth Voices Lab – Power of the Collective programme has been awarded 1st place in the People’s Choice category at the 2025 .eu Web Awards! This recognition celebrates our contribution to youth engagement, digital participation, and cross-continental collaboration.

Out of 93 nominated websites from 15 countries and 25 finalists across five categories, our website stood out for its impact, accessibility, and ability to connect young people across Africa and Europe. The results were shaped by both public voting and expert jury evaluation, meaning this win belongs to the community as much as it does to us.

The numbers speak for themselves: a total score of 10/10, a 5/5 from the jury, and 2,635 votes from the public placed us firmly in 1st place in our category, People’s Choice. We deeply appreciate the jury’s recognition, and we are grateful to every single person who voted, shared, and supported us across Africa and Europe. Your engagement made this possible.

At its core, our website is where our story lives. It is where we share news, opportunities, and resources, connect young people across two continents, and make sure youth voices are heard. This award is a reminder of why that work matters.

This recognition encourages us to keep building inclusive, youth-driven digital spaces that amplify young voices across Africa and Europe. Read more on the official awards website and stay tuned for what’s coming next!
