The Honor List Expands Global Call: Recognizing Every Kind of Exceptional Child

Post by : The Honor List

Newsible Asia outlines full list of student categories eligible for The Honor List recognition

In a world filled with diverse talent, where children are doing more than ever before across every imaginable domain, The Honor List — an initiative by Newsible Asia — now invites nominations from every possible student category.

Launched to recognize Asia’s most inspiring young minds, The Honor List is not limited to top scorers or high achievers in traditional fields. It’s a platform of inclusion, celebrating real effort, talent, and impact — wherever it is found.

Whether a child is leading a coding team, building robots, performing classical music, championing mental health, or excelling in sports — this is their moment.


A Global Platform for Every Child Doing Something Remarkable

The Honor List is open to children under the age of 18, from any Asian country or of Asian origin living abroad, across the following categories:


1. Academic Excellence

Students with top performance in school subjects, international assessments, Olympiads, and board examinations.

Examples:

  • High GPA/Topper students

  • Olympiad medalists (Math, Science, English, etc.)

  • National exam rank holders

  • Academic researchers or published young scholars


2. STEM & Innovation

Young minds who are solving real-world problems through Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.

Examples:

  • Robotics builders

  • Coders, app developers

  • AI/ML junior learners

  • Innovators with prototypes

  • Drone creators, science fair winners


3. Arts & Culture

Those who are shining in the creative arts — be it visual, performing, or cultural preservation.

  • Painters, sculptors, animators

  • Singers (classical, contemporary)

  • Dancers (Bharatanatyam to hip hop)

  • Filmmakers and YouTubers

  • TEDx Youth speakers

  • Debate & elocution champions

Those selflessly giving back — to schools, villages, the elderly, underprivileged or disaster-affected communities.

Examples:

  • Community tutoring

  • Fund drives and support networks

  • Disability support

  • Village development programs


11. Special Abilities & Inclusion

Children with physical or neurological challenges who are achieving with excellence in any domain.

Examples:

  • Differently-abled achievers

  • Neurodiverse creators

  • Adaptive athletes

  • Sign language campaigners


12. Extraordinary Talents (Wildcard)

Any child doing something completely unique — breaking records, learning 20 instruments, building satellites, or anything the world should see.

Examples:

  • Memory champions

  • World record holders

  • Ultra-young talents

  • Guinness Book applicants

  • Talents without a label


Why This Matters

Speaking about this expanded category list, the team at The Honor List shared:

“We didn’t create this platform to judge. We created it to reflect reality — that brilliance takes many forms. We wanted to open the gates wide enough that no deserving child is left out simply because they don’t fit into a neat box.”


One Child. One Story. Every Week.

Starting immediately, The Honor List will feature one child per week — a story that represents excellence, uniqueness, and effort. Each child receives:

  • A Lifetime Certificate of Membership

  • A personal feature story on Newsible Asia

  • Global visibility through media partnerships in UAE, Canada, GCC, and more

  • Eligibility for future updates and re-features
