Nominations can only be received from heads of state and certain elected officials, university professors in select fields, previous Nobel Prize winners, and a few other notable individuals. Although the identity of each nominee will officially remain anonymous for 50 years, JA has been given permission to share the nomination by a distinguished professor of law and international affairs who was impressed by JA’s incredible global reach, success in delivering empowerment of youth at scale, and their ability to find unity in diversity.
For centuries, unemployment and poverty have led to political instability, violence and war. By economically empowering youth on every continent (even during this pandemic), JA serves as a conduit for peace. They envision a world where young people have the skills and mindset to build thriving communities. JA has a heritage of impacting people’s lives. While they continue to grow and impact people on a massive scale, JA’s impact is felt in communities and across countries.
