More than 680 applications for the 2025 Scholarship competition!
The number of applicants for the Foundation's 2025 scholarship was high this year, with a record 686 applications submitted. We would like to thank all applicants for their interest and the quality of their research projects. The selection process is currently underway, and the Scholars who will make up the 2025 cohort will be announced in May.

More than just a scholarship, the three-year journey offered by the Foundation aims to train engaged leaders with the skills required to turn their ideas into actions and contribute concretely to addressing the challenges of their communities, Canada, and the world. They will benefit from exchanges, networking, and events with the Foundation’s Fellows and Mentors, all of whom are leaders in their respective fields.

Outstanding nominations for the 2025 Mentorship program!

Mentors play an essential role in the development of new Scholars. They are role models outside academia, inspiring with their professional achievements and valuable skills.

Who will be the next ten 2025 Mentors? We will reveal this in May, after a rigorous selection process.
