2019 Global Citizen Scholarship
Explore one of the world’s most diverse ecosystems—on us
EF’s Global Citizen Scholarship gives you the opportunity to bring your innovative ideas to life, both abroad and at home. Recipients will earn a free trip to Panama, where man-made marvels and natural phenomena intersect.
We’re challenging applicants to identify solutions that will improve the global water crisis, starting with their own communities. We want you to turn the tide!

How to apply
Highlight a water issue affecting your community or beyond, and how you might help address it.
Whether it’s improving water quality or making water more accessible, choose an issue you’re passionate about. (And don’t be afraid to think outside the box!)
