The aim of the scientific prizes awarded by the Institut des hautes études de défense nationale (IHEDN) is to highlight research into defence, security, international relations and foreign policy issues in disciplines as diverse as anthropology, political science, economics, sociology, law, history, geography and philosophy.
They also foster links between IHEDN and the academic world.
Created in 1998, each year these prizes are awarded to researchers at Masters II and PhD level whose work, defended during the year, advances knowledge in the humanities and social sciences.
Applications are examined by a jury made up of academics and qualified personalities appointed by the Director of the IHEDN. Winners are selected on the basis of the criteria set out in the competition rules.
Applications are now closed.
