Climate Change Centre Offers Scholarships to 100 West Africans
The Federal Ministry of Education and Research of Germany (BMBF) has awarded scholarships to 100 postgraduate students to pursue thematic courses in Climate Change in West Africa.
The programme, managed by the Capacity Building Department of the West African Science Service Centre on Climate Change and Adapted Land Use (WASCAL), is part of efforts to strengthen West Africa’s human scientific capacities to analyse regional climate change impacts.
The scholarship also forms part of WASCAL’s commitment to training and building the capacity of the next generation of African scientists to champion the fight against climate change, while influencing governments and policy makers.
