2024 Mozida Foundation Scholarships for African Students

Mozida Foundation is currently accepting application from African students for the 2024 session for a master’s Program. The Scholarship will provide exceptional support for outstanding students seeking to pursue a master’s degree at Bolivian university.

For almost two decades, the Mozida Foundation has been dedicated to providing equal opportunities to underserved populations. Through our dedication to offering healthcare, charitable services, and scholarships, Mozida Foundation is committed to improving the lives of marginalized populations.

We consider opportunities for personal development, support for those in need, and access to high-quality healthcare to be fundamental cornerstones for creating a just and prosperous society. The Mozida African Excellence Scholarship is our most recent project. According to recent research, Africa’s total population will reach 2.5 billion by 2050 and the African continent will be the source of the largest workforce on our planet. There is therefore a need to equip African youths with relevant knowledge, skills and technical know-how in a bid to prepare them for the not-too-distant future.
