The programme seeks to strengthen universities and TVET institutions to better serve communities by skilling and empowering Africa’s young people and their institutions to drive inclusive, equitable and climate-resilient transformation of agriculture and agri-food systems. The scholarship is open to both female and male applicants, with a focus on economically disadvantaged but academically competent students.
