The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award turns 70 in the U.S., with Prince Edward rallying support as the program expands from one Newark school to sixteen, partnering with Bank of America and EdgeConneX to create real job pathways in tech, finance, and engineering. Born from Prince Philip, educator Kurt Hahn, and Everest leader Brigadier John Hunt’s vision to challenge youth, the award now empowers 8 million young people across 120+ countries — proving that pushing boundaries builds confidence, skills, and futures.
