This scholarship is intended for social entrepreneurs working towards a sustainable future where everyone is seen and heard – challenging the root causes of poverty, exclusion, and inequality. You’ll join IKEA’s global delegation taking part in the One Young World Summit 2023, where you’ll have the opportunity to hear and be heard by sustainability leaders and build useful connections for your projects and your work with a global audience. You’ll also get permanent membership of the One Young World Ambassador community — a global community of 15,000+ activists, humanitarians, world-leaders, business-leaders, thought-leaders, entrepreneurs, politicians and innovators.
