HCM CITY— The British Council has announced the GREAT Scholarships for a Sustainable Future: 26 scholarships for COP26. 

It offers over £280,000 worth of scholarships to students from Egypt, Nigeria, Pakistan, Turkey, and Việt Nam to pursue post-graduate courses in climate change-related courses in the UK from autumn this year. 

Twelve universities have partnered the campaign to offer 26 scholarships.

The scholarships are designed to widen access to climate change courses in the UK, thus creating a cohort of young spokespeople for positive change.

They will enable 26 international students to be well positioned to pursue green jobs, supporting delivery of transformational change.

Each scholarship is worth a minimum of £10,000.

Students applying for the scholarships must have received an offer of entry from one of the participating universities and satisfy all entry requirements for the chosen course. VNS
