Secondary School Prize

The Foundation awards three prizes for research in bioethics conducted by senior high school students.

It is hoped that these prizes will promote the inclusion of the ethical dimension in research in professional education from the outset. Prizes will be awarded to the three best research projects in bioethics completed during the academic year 2025-2026 in public and private secondary schools in Catalonia.
