A perfect score of 10/10 and 7,827 public votes mark a major achievement for the SoilTribes community and Youthmakers Hub.

We are proud to announce that SoilTribes (soiltribes.eu) has been named the winner of the 2026 .eu Web Awards in the Sustainability Champion category, receiving a perfect score of 10 out of 10 based on the combined results of the jury evaluation and public voting.

Organized by EURid, the registry manager of the .eu domain, the .eu Web Awards recognize outstanding websites that use the .eu domain to build a strong online presence and make a positive contribution through their digital activities.

This recognition is particularly meaningful for Youthmakers Hub, as the partner responsible for developing, updating, and managing the SoilTribes website within the project’s Communication, Dissemination, and Exploitation activities.

7,827 Votes. One Community. A Shared Achievement.

The SoilTribes website received an incredible 7,827 votes during the public voting phase, demonstrating the support and engagement of the community behind the project.

From researchers and educators to artists, organizations, local communities, and soil enthusiasts, the SoilTribes community is what gives the platform its purpose.

Without this community’s knowledge, activities, resources, and contributions, the website would be an empty digital space.

This recognition belongs to everyone who has contributed to SoilTribes, participated in its activities, shared its resources, and supported its mission.

Youthmakers Hub: Turning Project Knowledge into Digital Impact

As a partner in the Horizon Europe-funded SoilTribes project, Youthmakers Hub leads the project’s Communication, Dissemination, and Exploitation efforts, helping ensure that its knowledge, activities, and results reach audiences beyond the project consortium.

Our team is responsible for the development, continuous updating, and management of soiltribes.eu, creating a digital platform that brings together the project’s activities, resources, news, and opportunities for engagement.

Our objective has always been to make the website more than an information channel: to create an accessible, engaging, and evolving digital space where people can discover SoilTribes, access knowledge, and connect with the wider community.

For Youthmakers Hub and the entire SoilTribes Consortium, this award is a commitment to keep improving, sharing knowledge, connecting communities, and making soil protection more visible and accessible.

We extend our sincere appreciation to EURid for organising the .eu Web Awards and recognising digital initiatives that make a difference.

We also congratulate all participants, finalists, and fellow winners of the 2026 edition for their outstanding work and contributions.

Above all, thank you to the entire SoilTribes community for the trust, participation, and support that made this achievement possible.
