The World Youth Forum Grant (WYFG)

Scholarship for young South African researchers

The WYFG is a scholarship for one study term at the University of Bremen. It addresses South African master-students in their final year of studies or PhD candidates at the beginning of their research with an academic focus in the field of cultural or social sciences. WYFG specifically welcomes applications from South African partner institutions of the University of Bremen (University of the Western Cape, Capetown; University of the Free State, Bloemfontein; University Kwazulu Natale, Durban). The stay in Bremen is organized in cooperation with the Faculty 09 Cultural Studies and the interdisciplinary and collaborative research platform Worlds of Contradiction (WOC) at the University of Bremen. The grant is funded by the Foundation of the University of Bremen, enabled by a donation of the Herald Tribune World Youth Forum Alumni Association and will go to one recipient per year.
