The Cambridge Africa Changemakers Scholarship program invites applications for full-cost scholarships in any subject area from talented individuals across all African nations. This prestigious scholarship can be pursued in any college within the University of Cambridge.
The program aims to empower bright students who require financial assistance, enabling them to conduct research that contributes to the development of the continent and promotes climate-resilient and sustainable futures for both Africa and the world.
In 2013, the Cambridge Commonwealth, European, and International Trust was established following the merger of the Cambridge Commonwealth Trust and the Cambridge Overseas Trust.
Originally founded in the 1980s as charitable organizations, these trusts were designed to provide financial support to international students pursuing degree programs at the University of Cambridge.
Each year, the Trust offers around 500 scholarships and facilitates accommodation for approximately 1,100 to 1,400 international students hailing from 85 different countries, reflecting a longstanding commitment to global education and scholarship.
