Newly Launched DAAD scholarship programs

The DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service) would like to draw your attention to a new scholarship program “Leadership for Africa”, for which we will open the call for applications on August 26th, 2020. The DAAD is the world’s largest funding organisation for the international exchange of students and researchers. Furthermore, the DAAD supports the internationalisa-tion of universities, assists developing countries in establishing effective higher ed-ucation institutions and advises decision makers on matters of cultural, education and development policy.
The special scholarship programme “Leadership for Africa” (LfA), funded by the German Foreign Office, aims to support the academic qualification and advance-ment of young African refugees and national scholars from selected countries as Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda and Sudan at higher education institutions in Germany. In times of conflicts and displacement in various African countries, the DAAD in-tends with this programme to contribute to the education of a future elite of lead-ers, who will be essential for the reconstruction and further development of their home countries. Leadership for Africa offers scholarships for Master studies in Germany to qualified applicants in all fields of study with the exception of medi-cine, veterinary medicine, dentistry, law, the arts and architecture. Public health is open for application in the field of medical studies.
