The Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program at the University of Rwanda is a transformative initiative designed to empower talented, service-minded youth from economically disadvantaged backgrounds to become the next generation of ethical leaders and changemakers in Africa.
To develop inclusive, ethical, and transformative leaders who will drive Africa’s development through education, innovation, and community service.
To create a world where young people, regardless of their socio-economic background, can access quality education and become agents of inclusive and sustainable change.
The program supports youth from Rwanda and other African countries, especially young women, refugees, and persons with disabilities who demonstrate academic talent, leadership potential, and economic disadvantage.
