One Young World Presents: Z Zurich Foundation Scholarship 2025

The Z Zurich Foundation creates brighter futures for vulnerable people. Prevention is at the forefront of our work.

Our three pillars – adapting to climate change, improving mental well-being, and enabling social equity – are increasingly urgent, complex issues that have far-reaching impacts on individuals, communities and society as a whole.

We focus on helping disadvantaged communities to adapt to a changing climate. We are building a global community dedicated to improving the mental well-being of young people, and we are providing youth with the skills, education and resources they need to reach their full potential.

We believe that the key to creating a better future is connection – fostering relationships between those in the know and those most in need, advocating for change and tackling society’s challenges from the ground up.

This is why we are committed to supporting impactful leaders to participate in the annual One Young World Summit, the world’s most international community of young leaders.
