IE FOUNDATION PRIZES IN THE HUMANITIES


The IE Foundation Prizes in the Humanities are held each year to celebrate the best creative works by students, alumni, faculty and staff that form part of the IE community.

These prizes honor the humanistic vision held by all of the members of our educational community, as well as their critical thinking, and their ability to have a unique voice and vision of reality. The IE Foundation, with the support of the IE Arts & Humanities Division, is proud to host these awards to propel this particular vision of the world that is so integral to IE University’s identity.

Through this web, we would like to inspire and motivate you to participate in the IE Foundation Prizes in the Humanities, and invite you to express yourself creatively through your stories, characters, landscapes and realities.
