Dr. Margrit Egnér Foundation
The Dr. Margrit Egnér Foundation is a Swiss foundation . Every year it awards a science prize to authors of scientific papers in the field of “anthropological and humanistic psychology ”, including the corresponding branches of medicine and philosophy. It honors individual works as well as an entire life's work. The price is financed from the net income from the foundation's assets. The foundation also finances scientific projects in the social, therapeutic and cultural fields.
The public award ceremony takes place on the second Thursday in November. After an introduction to the respective topic of the year, the three award winners will give presentations on their field of work.
The foundation was established in 1983 by Margrit Egnér (1922–2000). The foundation has been based in Meilen in the Canton of Zurich since 1995 .
