EU Scholarship Programme for Cypriot Youth at UWC

The EU Scholarship Programme for Cypriot Youth at UWC aims to contribute to building bridges of mutual understanding between Cypriot communities. It offers Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot youth the opportunity to come together through education and build their skills as future change-makers for a more peaceful and sustainable world. The programme began with six scholarship students from the Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot communities attending UWC Mostar (Bosnia and Herzegovina) from 2020 to 2022. Since then, the European Union has been providing Cypriot students with scholarships to study at a UWC school in Europe (Italy, the Netherlands, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Germany). The programme has expanded to include scholarships to participate in UWC short courses, both online and residential, in Cyprus and abroad; and bi-communal youth engagement activities in Cyprus.
