Appels à Initiatives Étudiantes (AIE)

The Appels à Initiatives Étudiantes (AIE) is an institutional funding programme by Université PSL that supports student association projects across its member establishments. It finances inter‑establishment cultural, sporting, civic, solidarity, scientific outreach and innovation projects that demonstrate visible impact on campus life and alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Projects must be led by a PSL student association, be independent of curricula and typically have a maximum implementation duration of six months. A jury of member establishments selects laureates and the Service de la Vie Etudiante provides accompaniment during the application process.

Financial support for projects; accompaniment from the Service de la Vie Etudiante; selection by an inter-establishment jury.

Applicants must be students of PSL; projects must impact at least two PSL establishments and be led by an association or federation of associations with a bank account in the organisation's name. Projects must be independent of study curricula.

Submit a project application via the programme's submission platform during one of two annual sessions (autumn and spring); applications are reviewed by an inter-establishment jury.
