Tech-related Education Scholarships for students from Developing Countries

The Youth Education Scheme (YES) is one of the cornerstones of the ITU-D “Children and Youth” Special Initiative, in support of needy and deserving young people, from Least Developed Countries (LDCs), developing countries and countries in transition who wish to complete their tertiary education in the information and communication technologies (ICTs) and related fields. The objective is to enable motivated young people to contribute to the development of their communities, country and region using their achieved ICT knowledge and skills.

The goal of the selection procedure is to identify talented young people who are unable to complete their studies in ICTs and related fields without financial support.

Following applications are encouraged:
1. Studies related to information and communication technology (ICT)
2. Students who wish to continue their studies in their own country or in a neighboring country
3. Applications from women
