African Fellowship for International Students

African Fellowship for International Students

African Fellowship: The Royal Agricultural College, UK, announces African grants and fellowships for students from Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Swaziland, Malawi, Burkina Faso, Mozambique and Cameroon in the UK.

Since the fellowship programme was launched in 2005, over a million pounds has now been generously provided by donors in support of the programme.

This funding has provided for leadership training; the development of professional networks and supporting work experience, together with study opportunities on the master’s programme in International Rural Development at the Royal Agricultural College.

All of the Fellows subsequently return to Africa and many are now making significant leadership contributions through their various occupations to managing change in food supply and security, farming, agribusiness, agricultural education and government.
