Canadian International Development Scholarships (bcdi 2030)

The BCDI 2030 program, funded by Global Affairs Canada, offers 600 study and training scholarships in Canada, with a focus on reducing inequalities and advancing social and economic development in 26 eligible countries. The program ensures at least 51% female participation and prepares scholars to become agents of change in their communities upon return.   

Who can apply? 

The BCDI 2030 program is open to students from 26 eligible countries. However, applications are not submitted individually—candidates must apply through a partnership between a Canadian higher education institution (HEI) and an HEI from their home country. Each project sets its own selection criteria.
