Human rights lawyer Amal Clooney has teamed up with 100 Lives to launch the Amal Clooney Scholarship.

100 Lives is the organisation behind the Aurora Prize for Awakening Humanity, which looks to strengthen cross-cultural education and understanding through collaborative social and philanthropic projects. The new scholarship will send one female student from Lebanon to Dilijan each year to enrol in a two year international baccalaureate programme, and Clooney commented 'Cross-cultural learning and studying abroad can be transformative. I am grateful to 100 Lives for helping to open doors for these bright and talented young women'.
