We are proud to highlight that our student Jan Kozak has been selected to serve on the national jury of the European Charlemagne Youth Prize, in recognition of his many years of dedicated service and sustained engagement in public life.

The Prize, jointly organised by the European Parliament and the Foundation of the International Charlemagne Prize of Aachen, honours youth-led initiatives that strengthen democracy, promote active citizenship, and foster cooperation across Europe.

From 27 national winners, the European Jury selects three European laureates whose projects receive financial support and international recognition. Jan Kozak’s appointment reflects his long-standing commitment to civic responsibility, democratic values, and youth engagement. Serving on a jury composed of policymakers and experts, he represents the voice of young people at the European level — a distinction that recognises both his experience and his continued dedication to public service.
