MACJANNET PRIZE AWARD CEREMONY

In 2009 and 2010, a MacJannet Prize Award Ceremony was held at the Tufts University European Center in Talloires, France. In 2011, the Talloires Network and MacJannet Foundation held an Award Ceremony at the Network’s Global Leaders Conference in Madrid, Spain in June. These gatherings were exciting opportunities for participants to exchange information, learn from one another’s experiences, and build relationships with their peers around the world.
