Application Deadline: 20 July 2026

LOCATION: South Africa

Building on the success of the WE Award 2025, Pernod Ricard is proud to partner once again with One Young World to launch the Spirit of Togetherness Award 2026.

This award recognizes five outstanding young leaders who are creating opportunities for connection and belonging within their communities. Their work demonstrates that conviviality can be a powerful force for positive change, strengthening social cohesion, fostering inclusion, and enriching cultural life.

ELIGIBILITY:

Candidates must be aged at least 18 and aged at least the minimum drinking age in their country of residence. Nationals of all countries will be eligible to apply for the award.

Eligible candidates must demonstrate the following:

Impact – Measurable community engagement and impact. 

Inclusivity – A commitment to inclusivity, bringing diverse people together. 

Scalability – Initiative should be scalable and replicable.

Although not core requirements, special consideration will be given to candidates who demonstrate a commitment to environmental sustainability and innovation in their work.

Eligible candidates will be leading an initiative that aligns with one or more of the following:

Facilitating moments of joyful and shared connection in their communities, culture, or workplace.

Creating inclusive social environments and ecosystems that create bridges and bring diverse groups of people together (e.g., intergenerational, multicultural, diverse abilities).

Crafting everyday moments of cultural togetherness and conviviality centered around local traditions, heritage, food and drink, and culture.

By spotlighting these changemakers, we aim to inspire a broader movement, one that places human connection, empathy, and shared experiences at the center of progress. Because the future we want to build is not only more sustainable, but also more connected, inclusive, and convivial.

All applications will be assessed by One Young World. Award recipients will be selected by a judging panel composed of One Young World counsellors, Pernod Ricard representatives, and One Young World senior leadership. 

BENEFIT:

Each award recipient will receive: 

An €8,000 grant to support and scale their initiative
