The Ibrahim Scholarship Programmes
The Ibrahim Scholarships are a range of programmes to support
aspiring leaders for the African continent. The scholarships reflect a
range of priorities for African development.
From a focus on the education of women in Sudan to support for
historically marginalised Nubian people in Egypt, the Foundation is
committed to showcasing the best talent from the African continent,
particularly amongst those groups who are often denied the opportunity
to contribute to their society’s development.
Investing in the future of young people in Africa is key to
improving the continent’s governance. The Foundation highlights areas in
which dramatic impact can be demonstrated when young Africans are given
the opportunities they deserve to build their own and their countries’
futures.
American University in Cairo
The Foundation provides two graduate fellowships and two full
undergraduate scholarships to students of Nubian origin, with a working
