Hyundai Motor Group is offering five scholarships intended to nurture talent from Africa at SOAS University of London.
These scholarships aim to cultivate experts for sustainable development in Africa and will continue to establish long-term collaboration models for the next generation of Africa. The scholarships are designed to create meaningful change and empower students to find solutions to global challenges.
Scholarship recipients will be invited to participate in various networking events and seminars hosted by the donor during and after their studies.
