Are you looking to make a significant impact through your postgraduate studies? The Canon Collins Trust, in partnership with the Ros Moger and Terry Furlong group (RMTF), is offering transformative scholarships for students dedicated to social justice.
This is your opportunity to advance your education in a meaningful way in South Africa for the academic year 2025.
Pick Your Study Area
For the year 2025, they are offering scholarships in these specific areas:
- Justice: This includes Climate Justice, Law, Economics, and Politics.
- Education Policy and Practice: If you want to shape the future of education, this is for you.
- Humanities: Includes studies in Literature, History, Anthropology, and the Arts.
Make sure your study area matches these options. If you are studying something different like MBAs or medical sciences, this scholarship isn’t the right fit for you.
