Article text

On August 27, 2025, UNESCO announced that Daniel Michels was selected as one of 50 young and emerging leaders from 8,250 applications for the inaugural Youth for Peace: UNESCO Intercultural Leadership Programme. That selection created the support framework behind Emblem's Luxembourg Passport project for 2025-2026.

For Emblem, this matters because the Luxembourg Passport project is implemented by Daniel Michels with support from the Youth for Peace: UNESCO Intercultural Leadership Programme (2025-2026). The support is important, but the project itself remains Emblem's own cultural initiative rather than a UNESCO-owned project.

The programme connection gives the work international context while staying aligned with UNESCO's branding guidance. It reflects support for the project's intercultural mission, especially its effort to connect tourism, local artists, and cultural storytelling through a portable digital format.
