The promotion of young talent has been one of the founding principles of the FES. The first scholarships were awarded to particularly talented young individuals from a working-class milieu who were taking an active part in the young democracy of the Weimar Republic.
For the FES therefore, it is not only the applicants’ academic achievement but also their social and political involvement and their personal attitudes that play an important part in the selection process.
