Applications are open for the One Young World Pernod Ricard Scholarship to attend OYW Summit 2024. The scholarship will identify and connect an interdisciplinary team of 10 committed young leaders who are working to build positive social spaces and tackle harmful drinking and its wider impacts in their countries and communities. Scholars will receive full funding to participate in the One Young World Summit 2024 which takes place in Montreal, Canada from September 18 – 21, 2024.
Scholars will participate in the Summit as members of Pernod Ricard’s delegation, have opportunities to help shape their interventions at the event and receive expert mentorship to accelerate their initiatives. In addition, all scholars will contribute to a collective project intended to inform Pernod Ricard’s thinking on the future of socialising and efforts to reduce harmful drinking.
