The British High Commission office in PNG has proudly announced the opening of the 2017-18 Chevening Scholarships for Papua New Guineans who wish to study in United Kingdom. Chevening Scholarships are awarded to individuals with demonstrable leadership potential who also have strong academic backgrounds. The scholarship offers financial support to study for a Master’s Degree at any UK university and the opportunity to become part of an influential global network of 46,000 alumni. The call for new applicants follows the selection of three scholars from Papua New Guinea, who won an award to study at a UK university earlier this year. There are more than 1,500 Chevening Scholarships on offer globally for the 2017/2018 academic cycle. However, these scholarships represent a significant investment from the UK Government to develop the next cohort of global leaders. During the announcement, the British Acting High Commissioner to Papua New Guinea, Rebecca Brett stated that, those who are selected for a Chevening Scholarship become recognised as leaders belonging to a global network of influencers. “They are empowered with a strong sense of pride and responsibility,” she stated. Chevening Secretariat Director, Michael Scott-Kline also added that, those who step forward to apply for a Chevening Scholarship are already demonstrating the kind of ambitious forward-thinking that typifies Chevening Scholars. “The potential rewards for applying are unquantifiable. Not only do scholars receive first-rate UK educations which can open doors in their respective careers but they also join a strong global network, a network they will draw on and contribute to for the rest of their lives.” “Applying or encouraging a friend to apply may turn out to be the best decision you ever make. Everyone who has ever benefitted from being a Chevening Scholar has one thing in common they had the ambition to simply apply.” “Scholars can choose almost any master's course at any UK university. As well as an unparalleled academic experience, scholars enjoy exclusive access to year-round opportunities to familiarise them with the UK, its history, institutions, customs, and people” said Chevening Programme Manager, Louise Thomson. Recent scholars have taken in breath-taking views of the UK, experienced Britain’s heritage and history through its stately homes and castles, discussed international policy at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, and interacted with high profile academics, politicians, and even royals at a range of academic, cultural, and social events. Whether they're inside a lecture theatre or not, scholars are constantly learning.’ Therefore, it is my pleasure to announce the opening of the 2017-18 competition for Chevening Scholarships to give opportunities for Papua New Guineans to study and create networks abroad.

Why would any Papua New Guinean with a genuine desire to use their ability to benefit their fellow PNGians want to, or need to, visit "Britain's stately homes and castles" or "Interact with the Royals" ?
