Crown Princess Victoria is the patron of the Stockholm Junior Water Prize, which is open to entrants from around the world.
Each year, some 30,000 young people participate in hopes of taking home the $15,000 prize money, along with a blue crystal sculpture, a diploma and a place to stay in Stockholm.
They compete in national competitions in the hope of getting the chance to represent their country in the international final held during World Water Week in Stockholm.
The national and international competitions are open to young people between the ages of 15 and 20 who have carried out water-related projects with proven environmental, scientific, social or technological significance. The projects range from local or regional to national or global topics.
