A unique space for expression
for people aged 18-28
And the winners are...

Le Cercle des économistes and France Culture present the 10th edition of “La Parole aux 18-28”

This event, open to all young people aged 18 to 28, gives a unique space for young people to express their aspirations and prepare for the future.

The 120 young people invited to join us in Aix-en-Provence on July 8, 9 and 10, 2022 will be selected on the basis of their application. To win the three “La Parole aux 18-28” prizes, each endowed with €1,000, Le Cercle des économistes and France Culture will ask the young people selected to produce a free-format essay on the theme “What if you transformed the world: which priorities would you set?” At the beginning of May, the jury will meet to name the three winners of the La Parole aux 18-28 prize. The results will be announced on May 10, 2022.
