Paris Collaborative Fellow has opened applications for the Global Fellowship Program 2026 for young innovators from around the world. The programme targets teenagers who already have hands-on experience implementing their own ideas, actively lead initiatives, and aim to present their projects on an international stage. The Fellowship provides a platform for publicly showcasing solutions with social, technological, or cultural impact. In addition, it connects participants with a global community of experts, mentors, and peers. Participation can therefore become a significant step toward building an international portfolio and advancing future academic or professional pathways.
The fellowship supports innovators aged 12 to 18 who have moved beyond the “idea stage” and already developed a pilot project, proof of concept, or implemented case in science, technology, arts, media, or social change. Organisers seek applicants who can demonstrate tangible results, sustainability of their initiative, and potential for scaling. As a result, the programme not only recognises young innovators’ achievements but also strengthens their growth through international exposure, professional connections, and collaboration opportunities.
What participation in Paris Collaborative Fellow includes
Participants will have the opportunity to:
- present their project before an international panel of experts;
- receive individual mentorship from industry leaders;
- explore internship opportunities and obtain recommendation letters;
- join a global network of innovators from more than 80 countries.
Key date
Application deadline: 26 February 2026.
