Against the backdrop of global headwinds, from which Bangladesh is not immune, countless young achievers are tirelessly working to improve their communities and change the course of their society.
Identifying these super achievers and sharing their inspiring stories of resilience and courage is a challenging yet essential task. These narratives of hope and determination inspire others to dream big and achieve more.
The Joy Bangla Youth Award has emerged as a pivotal platform, celebrating and uniting these trailblazers from every corner of the country.
The much-anticipated eighth edition of the Joy Bangla Youth Award has officially opened for registration. The announcement was made today on the Facebook page of Young Bangla, the largest youth platform hosting the award: "Applications are now open for the Joy Bangla Youth Award, 2024."
The application deadline is July 31, 2024, with interested candidates encouraged to apply via the official website (https://jbya.youngbangla.org/).
The last seven editions of the award have highlighted incredible stories of young individuals who have been instrumental in transforming and inspiring lives across Bangladesh.
The award not only celebrates their achievements but also reminds the youth of their historic role in the country's fight for freedom, as the award is named after the wartime slogan "Joy Bangla."
