The award-winner Kadjo N'Dathua Grâce Mireille, an Ivorian national, received an envelope of 500,000 CFA francs and a laptop. The other winners received each 100,000 CFA francs and a laptop.

The godmother of the event took the opportunity of this ceremony to take social actions. Indeed, as usual, she offered donations in cans and in-kind to the institution to help it in its mission of training technicians and managers of the professions of the sea. So, well before the celebrations of the thirty years of the ARSTM, Mrs. Dominique Ouattara had offered a medical ambulance to the Academy of the Sea. These festivities gave her the opportunity to strengthen the offer of care of the infirmary of the institution. She offered a computer, a medical refrigerator, 2 stethoscopes, 3 suture boxes, 3 consultation lamps, 10 blouses, 16 sheets, and many other medical equipment in the infirmary. Still in order to improve the health of the students of the academy and the surrounding populations, Mrs. Dominique Ouattara offered 1,000 doses of vaccines against Typhoid fever.
