Why?
We stand up for the equal value of all individuals and a world where everyone can be themselves. To succeed in this, we know that inclusion is a must.
Through the Grand Prize for Engineering in Inclusion, we aim to highlight inspiring individuals who work towards inclusion that promotes equal opportunities and participation for all.
The winner/winners should have improved the conditions for inclusion and preferably also led to a cultural change where inclusion and diversity are an asset.
