The Salzburg Global Scholarship Program represents our institutional values, supports our core activities, and facilitates the realization of our global vision: to challenge present and future leaders to solve problems of global concern.
Our scholarship program helps ensure geographic diversity, enabling Salzburg Global to reflect its mission and the changing balance of influence and power in the world. Scholarships provide opportunities for young leaders from emerging countries to take part in Salzburg Global Seminar programs, to develop global networks, and to share the ideas and creativity of a rising generation. They provide a means for rising leaders to gain early experience of the benefits of collaborative problem solving over narrow self-interest.
