What Is U.S. Stockholm Junior Water Prize?
The Water Environment Federation's U.S. SJWP is a research competition for grade 9-12 students who are at least 15 by August 1 of the competition year and live in a U.S. state, the District of Columbia, or Puerto Rico. Students may enter independently, through a school, or after a regional fair; a regional award is not required. Entries may be individual or teams of two.
The 2026 state-entry deadline was April 15 and is closed. State winners entered virtual national judging during the first two weeks of May, with the top 20 projects advancing to in-person finals June 8-10 in Chicago. The U.S. winning project receives a $10,000 scholarship, trophy, certificate, and an all-expenses-paid trip to Stockholm to represent the United States during World Water Week.
