Himalayan Higher Education Scholarships, Bhutan (J1057N)

​

Our solution is to provide full scholarships to disadvantaged young women from rural Bhutan to pursue a 4-year BSc Environmental Management degree at Royal Thimphu College. Our Theory of Change informs the overarching criteria for awarding these scholarships; financial and social disadvantage, academic merit, and the potential for students to use the knowledge and skills gained through higher education to benefit their families and their communities over the long term.

 

Our objective is to provide scholarships and create an annual stream of female Bhutanese nationals who graduate with a BSc Environmental Management, obtain well-paid employment in environmental management agencies, and have a long career helping Bhutan address the challenges of climate change.
