EFA Scholarship Presents: European Forum Alpbach Scholarship 2025 in Austria
Every year, hundreds of young talents from all around the world come to the annual event in the village of Alpbach.
Students, young professionals and changemakers attend scientific, competence based and artistic seminars, participate in a high-level conference programme and join social and cultural activities.
The scholarship holders are the only participants who stay for the whole duration of the Forum.
Both EFA itself as well as the Forum Alpbach Network (FAN) award around 350 scholarships to first-time participants.
The two weeks in summer are a unique experience for this selected group of people, providing thought-provoking content as well as inspiring encounters with decision-makers and other generations of passionate Europeans.
The European Forum Alpbach scholarship programme generates ideas and sparks action among its participants: One of our former scholarship holders describes it as “an absolutely outstanding opportunity for young minds to interact, discuss, build friendships and collaborations and promote positive changes in the future.”
