The Hindu Group’s website for children was awarded in the “Best News Website or App Relaunch” category.

The awards are aimed at highlighting excellence in digital innovation, creativity, and audience engagement, showcasing the industry’s push to advance storytelling and tech-driven news experiences.

New look

Young World Club, an interactive website, is curated for children of five to 12 years. Launched in 2016, it is packed with rich multimedia content to make learning both exciting and meaningful.

In 2025, the website was redesigned to focus on the rapidly evolving digital habits of children, with higher expectations for interactivity, multimedia content, and seamless user experience. The aim was to modernise the website visually and functionally, without compromising on the editorial values of credibility and integrity. 

What’s next

In total, The Hindu Group bagged seven awards — two Gold, one Silver, four Bronze — across categories. Top-performing finalists from 78 countries will advance to compete for the global title in each of the 12 categories, with winners to be announced at the World News Media Congress 2026 in Marseille in June.
