About INTERNATIONAL AWARD FOR YOUNG PEOPLE (IAYP)
 

What is IAYP?.

 

The Award Programme was first introduced in the United Kingdom in 1956 as the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Scheme ‘DEAS’ by eminent educator Kurt Hahn. The aim was to motivate young people aged between 14 and 25 years to become involved in a balanced programme of voluntary self-development activities to take them through the potentially difficult period between adolescence and adulthood.

.

The Award Programme was first introduced in India in 1962 with a view to encouraging young people in the country to achieve their full growth potential within the framework of Indian society, to improve their moral, social and intellectual well-being.

 

In 1966 it was taken up by the Indian Public Schools Conference, when a number of well-known residential schools made a start with the Programme. Most of these continue with the Award to the present day. Several other schools adopted the Award Programme soon thereafter.

Later, need was felt to rename award scheme as International Award for Young People to appeal a more global perspective.
