Securing futures - Scholarship Beca Enrique Schmidt

In Nicaragua, books are a rarity. Reading is not a common habit, and a good education is a privilege for the rich. Many of the people will never have the means to get a career and provide a better future for themselves and their families. Especially young women from the countryside have little chances to get a degree that can open the door to a permanent and decently paid job.
 
Our projects aim to improve educational opportunities in Nicaragua. We consider education as a right that everyone is entitled to, and we see it as key for sustainable development. The scholarship programm Beca Enrique Schmidt aspires to give young, academically outstanding and financially disadvantaged Nicaraguans from the rural countryside through scholarships the change to take their future into their one hands.

The scholarship of 140 euros per month covers enrollment fees, teaching materials, transport costs and a food allowance.
