Germany invites Green Talent'

Updated on: Tuesday, June 08, 2010

The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) is calling for talented young scientists from around the world specialising in the area of sustainable development to apply for the competition “Green Talents — The International Forum for High Potentials in Sustainable Development.”

The competition will give 15 exceptional young scientists the opportunity to meet and exchange views with today's leading experts in Germany. The winners will participate in a 10-day international science forum taking place later this year. Special focus will be on “Science Year 2010 — The Future of Energy,” announced by the BMBF due to the global importance of this area.

The German Federal Government wants to step up the exchange, especially with young scientists. That is why the Federal Ministry of Education and Research launched the international “Green Talents” competition in 2009. Application documents should be submitted to [email protected] by June 20.
