The Global Youth Travel Awards (GYTAs), held annually by WYSE Travel Confederation, formally recognise outstanding performers across several fields of international youth travel and reward stakeholders in the youth, student and educational travel industry that make a noteworthy contribution to the industry.

Now in their fifteenth year, the Global Youth Travel Awards are open to all organisations that work with youth travellers, regardless of their size or location. You can nominate organisations working within youth travel for an award and/or apply for an award on behalf of your organisation. The Awards showcase projects, programmes, products/services, campaigns or collaborations that have had measurable impact on the industry over the last year.

The winners will be announced at a gala dinner on the final evening of WYSTC in Lisbon on 26 September 2025.
