**By scholarship grants and the Marc de Montalembert Prize the Fondation Marc de Montalembert contributes to developing a better knowledge of the cultures of the Mediterranean world as well as their dissemination, particularly among the young people of that region.**

  
To encourage young people in acquiring a better knowledge of the cultures of their region, **one or two grants** – **scholarships for projects** – are awarded each year **for the realization of a cultural undertaking or one having to do with the development of a craft**. Since 1994 the Foundation has provided financial support to 30 projects undertaken by young grant winners from 8 Mediterranean countries. Projects have been realized in the following fields : creative writing, architecture, archeology, anthropology and sociology, music, history of art, craftsmanship, engraving, painting, photography.

  
The winner must present the final result of his project within the next year. The Foundation, having assessed the quality of work, may consider aid to its publication and dissemination.
