DGD Scholarships: detailed info: https://www.itg.be/E/scholarships

With the financial support of the Belgian Directorate-General for Development Cooperation (DGD), the Institute of Tropical Medicine is able to offer scholarships to applicants from developing countries.

The admission requirements of the DGD scholarships:

  *   Admission to the course
  *   You’re less than 46 years old at the end of the course or at graduation
  *   At least two years of professional experience. Please note that internships and prior thesis work are not considered as professional experience.

  *   Citizens from any LMIC can apply. Applicants need to be both citizen of and actually living in a LMIC as defined in the OECD-DAC list of LMICs<http://www.oecd.org/dac/financing-sustainable-development/development-finance-standards/DAC_List_ODA_Recipients2018to2020_flows_En.pdf>. A majority of scholarships, but not all, will be awarded to citizens from the countries defined as priority countries for DGD. The DGD priority country list includes: Benin, Bolivia, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cambodia, Cameroon, Cuba, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ecuador, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Guinea, Haiti, Indonesia, Kenya, Madagascar, Mali, Morocco, Mozambique, Nicaragua, Niger, Palestine, Philippines, Peru, Rwanda, Senegal, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Vietnam, Zimbabwe. In the past, is has happened that we gave about 40% of the scholarships to applicants that were not on the DGD priority list.
