What Is Diana Award (International)?

Diana Award (International): Program Overview
Prestigious international award for young humanitarians. Legacy of Princess Diana.
The Diana Award (International) recognizes young people who are making a sustained, positive impact in their communities, in the spirit of Princess Diana’s humanitarian legacy. Open to young changemakers around the world, the award highlights work in areas such as social justice, mental health, anti-bullying, education access, environmental action, and other forms of community service. Recipients are nominated by adults who can speak to the quality and impact of their work, making it an honor based on independent recognition rather than self-application.
This program is well suited for high school students who have led or contributed significantly to community projects, advocacy initiatives, or youth-led organizations and can demonstrate long-term commitment, leadership, and measurable impact. Being a Diana Award recipient can strengthen a college application by providing:
- Evidence of sustained community engagement and leadership
- External validation of impact from a respected international organization
- Access to a network of other young changemakers and development opportunities
In addition to the recognition itself, award holders may be offered mentoring, skills development, and ongoing support to further their projects. Students who are serious about social impact and ready to document their work through a nominator should consider pursuing this distinction. More details about eligibility, nomination guidelines, and support programs are available on the organization’s website.
