10 FULLY FUNDED AFAS SCHOLARSHIPS FOR AFRICANS STUDENTS: NATURE BASED SOLUTIONS ON CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION AND BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION

This initiative is part of the Global Centres for Climate and Environment program of the German Academic Exchange Service DAAD

AFAS will link with the Department of Earth and Climate Sciences (which hosts the ICCA) MSc program on Climate Change Adaptation by adding an additional focus on the potential of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) to address climate change adaptation and biodiversity conservation in West and East Africa’s savannas. For this MSc program UoN and AFAS are inviting applications for students from Africa for a total of 10 fully funded fellowships.

The African Climate and Environment Center – Future African Savannas (AFAS) is hosted conjointly at the Université Félix Houphouët-Boigny (UFHB) with its African Centre of Excellence on Climate Change, Biodiversity and Sustainable Agriculture (CEA-CCBAD) in Côte d’Ivoire and the University of Nairobi (UoN) with its Institute for Climate Change and Adaptation (ICCA) in Kenya.
