MACJANNET PRIZE FOR GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP

The Talloires Network and the MacJannet Foundation are pleased to call for nominations for the third annual MacJannet Prize for Global Citizenship. The MacJannet Prize recognizes exceptional student civic engagement initiatives based in Talloires Network member universities around the world and contributes financially to their ongoing public service efforts. One first prize ($5,000), two second prizes ($2,500 each), and five third-place prizes ($1,000 each) will be awarded. Winning programs will be profiled on the Talloires Network website and in communications that reach thousands of higher education contacts world-wide. Representatives from winning programs will also be hosted by the Talloires Network and MacJannet Foundation to receive their award in person at a special Award Ceremony.

Student initiatives that are based at a Talloires Network member institution are eligible to be considered for this prize. Nominations will be judged based on six selection criteria. Check out profiles of our 2009 and 2010 Prize recipients for examples of winning programs.
