As a longstanding partner of One Young World, Deloitte is proud to support the Deloitte One Young World Scholarship 2024, enabling five outstanding young leaders to attend the One Young World Summit in Montreal, Canada on 18 – 21 September 2024.
This scholarship is intended for young leaders focused on tackling these challenges, by either reducing the causes and effects of climate change, or improving the education, skills, and access to opportunities, in their communities, countries, or the world at large.
Eligibility Criteria
- Aged 18 – 30*

We are not able to accept applications from those who will be aged under 18 at the time of the Summit.
