I am a Kenyan aged 39 years old and holds a BA (Anthropology) from the University of Nairobi and several other certificated on Development and business administration. Currently I work as a Development Programmes Coordinator in Northern Kenya (among the pastoralists of the North). My three years in Development work has helped me internalize the passion for the poor and marginalized in this part of Kenya, where poverty is endemic and residents are afflicted by problems of recurring droughts, insensitive government policies and inter-tribal cattle raids.
Most Dev. effort here is done by the Catholic Church (which I work with), and this is mostly in charity form – saving lives in the immediate moment of need. Something ought to be done for the long term as well including key policy changes in favor of the region.
I am interested in pursuing MA course in International Dev. and come home (Kenya) to apply my skills in minimizing people’s suffering not only in short term but in long term as well.
This is only possible with a full scholarship, for which I need your assistance.
I am from Guyana, South America. I have a BSc in Environment Studies from the University of Guyana and an MA in Sustainable International Development from Brandeis University, USA. I have worked extensively in the area of environment protection with some experience in Governance. I am searching for a full scholarship to pursue a PhD in development studies. I came across the Development Studies program in Geneva online and it matches what I am looking for. Since i did not observe my country on the list , I assume that the demand may not be great for scholarships from Guyana, particularly in this area. Will keep checking and would appreciate any feedback.

I am an instructor teaching community development and other social science subjects in a state university in the Philippines. I am now 49 years of age but unfortunately, I still do not have a master’s degree despite the fact that I have long started enrolling in the Masters degree (MS in Community Development) here in our own Graduate School due to successive pregnancies and the difficulty to have my subjects offered because I am the only enrollee in this course.
I am very much willing to pursue this course (or any related field) because this is a highly relevant course in a poverty-stricken province like mine (Northern Samar). Furthermore, there are many enrollees of Bachelor of Science in Community Development in the school where I teach. However, I could not get any scholarship because of my age and the less priority of scholarship donors given to this field.
Could you help me? Thank you!
