This Scholarship is designed to encourage the development of future leaders. The successful applicant will need to demonstrate the personal, intellectual and interpersonal attributes to realise this potential.
The scheme has an increased focus on emphasising areas that are important to British Foreign Policy over the coming years such as Climate Change, the United Nations Millennium Development Goals, conflict prevention, counter terrorism measures, and the promotion of sustainable global growth.
