Scholarship Program European Forum Alpbach for Female Talents in STEM

The European Forum Alpbach's scholarship programme enables hundreds of talented people from all over the world to participate in the annual event in summer, to contribute their ideas, knowledge, and skills to the Forum, and exchange ideas with a wide array of people. As the most diverse group of EFA, they are vital for cross-sectoral and intergenerational dialogue and for strengthening the Forum’s alumni network.

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."

Forum Alpbach Network: The time spent together at the EFA connects former scholarship holders over the course of many years and across national borders: There are more than 30 alumni organisations in 21 different countries! They fund their own scholarships, organise various events throughout the year and support your stay at the European Forum Alpbach event.
