About This Opportunity

Chevening is the UK Government's prestigious international scholarships programme, offering exceptional future leaders the opportunity to further their education in the UK. Funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office and partner organisations, Chevening Scholarships are fully-funded awards that enable citizens of Kiribati to pursue one-year taught master's degrees at UK universities. The scholarship provides comprehensive financial support including full university tuition fees, monthly living stipend, travel costs to and from the UK, arrival and departure allowances, visa application costs, and a travel grant to attend Chevening events in the UK. The programme aims to build a global network of leaders and decision-makers who are making measurable impact in areas like climate action, economic prosperity, and conflict recovery. Chevening Scholars gain access to world-class education, exclusive networking opportunities, and the chance to immerse themselves in the UK's diverse culture. The programme seeks individuals who demonstrate leadership potential and a commitment to driving positive change in their home countries upon their return from the UK.
