Françoise Demole Award
This award aims to support initiatives from young people in Switzerland in relation with "International Geneva" and in the field of sustainable development.
Submissions to the Françoise Demole Award open on 3 September 2019, at the same time as those for the competition. The award is open to secondary school students registered for the concrete action category.
The scholarship is generously offered by Mrs. Françoise Demole, an exceptional personality from Geneva, who wishes to give young people the opportunity to take concrete action by providing them with the financial means to realize their project.
Every two years, support of up to 10,000 francs is awarded to one or more exemplary projects presented at the Eduki Competition. Among the criteria, projects must involve a close relationship with an actor in international cooperation engaged in the theme of the competition and based in Switzerland. Numerous entities work in favor of international cooperation throughout Switzerland. Feel free to contact us for more information on this matter.
