2021 Brower Youth Awards: Full Ceremony
October 15, 2021
The 22nd annual Brower Youth Awards was a two-part virtual event to celebrate the accomplishments of six youth leaders in the environmental movement. The first part, the Awards Ceremony, was held virtually on October 14, 2021, and included special videos showcasing the lives and work of our winners and speeches from each of our awardees. The theme for the 2021 Brower Youth Awards was “Our Power,” referring to the unique power of this generation of winners. The definition of power is strength and the ability to act or produce an effect. This year’s winners are all leaders who have the strength to mobilize environmental activist movements. Through their activism, they are pushing the culture forward. Their unique power is their ability to create a paradigm shift in a time of environmental peril. This year’s Brower Youth Award winners all have their own power, and it is their power that we want to celebrate. The flagship event of the New Leaders Initiative, the Brower Youth Awards has recognized outstanding youth leaders making strides in the environmental movement since 2000. The public ceremony and national award is hosted by the New Leaders Initiative and presented by Earth Island Institute. http://www.broweryouthawards.org/
