Aim and Benefits of German Government Green Talents Award

The prestigious Green Talents programme offers you the unique opportunity to become part of an exceptional world-wide network of outstanding young minds and leading German institutions.

    • The first part of the prize consists of an invitation to a two-week Science Forum in Germany, where you will be introduced to renowned research facilities and have individual meetings with experts (individual appointments). Here you will learn about potential collaborations and experience the country’s excellent research infrastructure at close hand.




  • In addition, a workshop on research and funding opportunities will provide you with further information for your future research stay in Germany.
  • The journey will culminate within a festive award ceremony hosted by a high-level representative from the BMBF.
  • You will have the opportunity to return to Germany for up to three months to conduct a research stay at an institute of your choice the year after the Science Forum.
