The 13th season of the Bangladesh Stockholm Junior Water Prize was launched on 20 October, 2026. Students in classes 9 to 12 or equivalent can submit project proposals until 1 February, 2027.

House of Volunteers Foundation Bangladesh is organising the 2027 competition after being nominated by the Stockholm Water Foundation as the national organiser, according to the press release. Estex is the technical partner and The Business Standard is the media partner.

The national water science competition invites school and college students from across Bangladesh to develop and present projects that address water-related problems. Students can enter individually or in teams of two.

Experienced mentors will lead a series of sessions to help participants develop their ideas and prepare their project proposals. An online information session is tentatively scheduled for 13 November, 2026, followed by the first mentoring session on 20 November, 2026. The organisers will share updates on the competition’s social media channels.

The national winner will represent Bangladesh at the international Stockholm Junior Water Prize final, held annually in Sweden during World Water Week.

Each year, thousands of students from around 40 countries enter national competitions for a chance to represent their countries at the international final. The international winner receives $15,000, a blue crystal prize sculpture, a diploma and accommodation in Stockholm. Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden is the patron of the Stockholm Junior Water Prize.
