GRANTS & AWARDS
World Dental Hygienist Awards
After a hiatus of almost 3 years, forced upon us by the global COVID-19 pandemic, the Sunstar Foundation and the International Federation of Dental Hygienists (IFDH) are thrilled to announce the comeback of a revamped World Dental Hygienist Awards program!
Purpose
The Sunstar Foundation has established the World Dental Hygienist Awards to recognize dental hygienists who have made significant contributions to the dental hygiene field. For example, in research, education, patient care, public health, or the general public.
The Awards in a glance
Together with two regional awards of distinction – in Europe, North America – the World Dental Hygienist Awards form a unique awards program designed to celebrate dental hygienists all over the world. They are presented every two years at the International Symposium on Dental Hygiene (ISDH). The awards consist of a trophy, cash prizes, and reimbursement for participation and travel to the ISDH. Nominations for the 2024 awards will be accepted from January 1st, 2023, until March 1st, 2024!
