Scholarships promote civil societies abroad

Brandeis was named as one of 20 universities worldwide to participate in a scholarship program for graduate students from select countries who demonstrate a commitment to build civil society
 in their home countries.

Recipients of a Civil Society Leadership Award will enroll at the Heller School for Social Policy and Management to pursue a master’s degree in sustainable international development, international health and management, or coexistence and conflict resolution. To be eligible for the scholarship, students must reside in Azerbaijan, Belarus, Cambodia, Egypt, Ethiopia, Laos, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Turkmenistan, or Uzbekistan.

The deadline is March 1 for applying for the scholarship for the 2014-15 academic year. Please contact Jamie McCarthy for more information.
