One Young World Summit ROCHE Scholarship 2026 in South Africa
As a pioneer in healthcare, Roche UK focuses its energy and investment in developing transformative medicines and tests that improve the lives of people in the UK.
It is only by partnering with the leading minds in science and healthcare that we can best serve the needs of patients, particularly those from traditionally underserved communities.
This is why Roche is committed to collaborative working with NHS organisations from across the United Kingdom.
As climate change poses a significant threat to our wellbeing, Roche recognises the inextricable connection between planetary and human health.
That is why innovations in healthcare must be truly sustainable – for both the environment and society. Roche is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions globally by 2045 and halving the environmental impacts of its products and operations.
Roche is therefore proud to partner with One Young World again to launch the Roche Scholarship 2026, which will enable 3 outstanding professionals working in the NHS to participate in the One Young World Summit in Cape Town, South Africa from 3-6 November 2026.
The Roche Scholarship is specifically for NHS young leaders who have shown a strong commitment to developing and implementing sustainable healthcare innovations. Examples may include:
- Tackling the causes and effects of health inequalities.
- Creating or implementing innovative methods of treatment or diagnosis to enhance the patient care pathway.
- Reducing emissions or burdens on natural resources, such as through decarbonizing healthcare supply chains.
