This program helps youth have a four-week journey and meet other countries and people.

  • A number of 30 mentors work with zis who will mentor and guide you as well with your application.
  • Travelers from the previous ye, zis scholarship committee and the current year applicants will have the chance to attend an annual gathering held by the zis foundation where they will have the story of the previous year displayed.
  • They will also interact with other guests and attend the workshops and receive travel instructions from zis alumni and mentors.

What should you include in your application?

Because this is all about you and is your journey, it’s up to you to decide which travel topic best interests you. Whether it’s art, nature, sports or politics – it’s your interests, talents, and inclinations that are important.

So, in your application tell the foundation what it is that connects you to your topic and what joins your chosen country to it. Depending upon your topic, you can also create a piece of art or craft instead of a written project report or choose an alternative way of documentation.
