We are excited to announce the HPass Learner of the Year Awards launch for 2024!
As the frequency and complexity of humanitarian crises continue to rise, so does the demand for a highly skilled and flexible workforce. HPass supports the professional development of staff and volunteers in the humanitarian sector through our HPass digital badges. Humanitarian learners can accumulate HPass digital badges and showcase their achievements through their individidual myHPass profile.
The HPass Humanitarian Learner of the Year Award 2024 has been launched to recognise and honour individuals who exemplify unwavering dedication to enriching their humanitarian expertise. Learning and earning HPass badges can be undertaken through the HLA’s digital learning platform Kaya and webinar series, as well as through a network of more than 30 HPass partners.
Award levels

For the HPass Learner of the Year 2024 Award, there are three tiers of recognition for myHPass users: Bronze, Silver, and Gold.
Your tier will be determined by the number of badges you’ve earned between 1 January and 31 December 2024:
- Bronze: Attain 20 badges
- Silver: Reach 30 badges
- Gold: Achieve an impressive 50 badges
