Swarovski Foundation invites applications for Indian and global creative leaders in sustainability

The Swarovski Foundation’s Creatives for Our Future programme, in collaboration with the United Nations Office for Partnerships, invites applications of young creatives from India and across the globe to accelerate sustainable development. 

Young creatives, aged 21 to 30, from a multitude of disciplines including fashion, design, art, architecture, and engineering can apply for the program till October 16. Successful candidates will secure a grant of €20,000 each, along with a training programme including one-on-one mentorship and industry networking opportunities.   

Successful applicants should be working on an original project or product that uses the creative process to drive awareness, technology or solutions for sustainable development and drives progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals set out by the United Nations. 

 To date, the programme has supported 21 projects in innovative design, founded and initiated by young creatives, who have ground-breaking ideas for addressing the world’s sustainability and development challenges. The programme has enabled them to develop and scale their projects - either with funds to build on their research, or through mentorship and networking opportunities to unlock new directions.
