More than 500 staff members from Danish supported partner organizations in 11 countries have received scholarships through the DFC Scholarship Programme since the programme was launched in late 2016.
Dr. Cheikh Mbow, Executive Director of the Washington based organisation START International, is this year’s receiver of the Danida Alumni Prize. The prize is awarded annually by Danida Fellowship Centre to an alum who has made significant contribution to positive change in his or her (their) home country or professional field based on his or her Danida funded studies.
Danida has supported research-capacity development projects for three decades. But what difference has it made to the persons involved? Danida Fellowship Centre has initiated a study looking into the broader perspectives of research-capacity development at African universities and research institutions.
