IT’S HERE – The Beaverbrook Vimy Prize is open for applications!
During this fully funded educational program, recipients from Canada, France, United Kingdom and Germany will visit Belgium and France from July 31 to August 10, 2026 to study the interwoven First and Second World War history of their respective countries, as well as the environmental impact of the wars.
Participants will gain new perspectives on well-known and lesser-told stories of the wars, see their lasting impact on people and the environment, and connect with students from around the world.
Youth aged 15-17 can apply by March 17, 2026.
