YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 1, ARMENPRESS. The UK Ambassador to Armenia John Gallagher hosted a farewell reception for departing Chevening Scholars who have been selected for Master’s degree scholarships at UK universities in 2023-2024, the UK Embassy said in a press release.

Members of the wider Chevening alumni family joined the event to congratulate the newcomers and to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Chevening.

The Ambassador also presented certificates to the four successful Scholars. He said:

“For 40 years, Chevening has been building a global network of over 55000 Alumni who are creating positive change in their communities and for the world. An impressive bunch of around 200 Armenians grace this huge Chevening family.”

“Today, I congratulate these amazing four people who have joined them and will be studying at UK’s best universities through Chevening Scholarships. I wish them good luck for this new chapter and hope they will invest their UK experience and knowledge in the development of Armenia.”

Chevening Scholarships are the UK Government’s global scholarship programme, funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) and partner organisations. The scholarships support Master's degrees studies at UK universities for individuals with demonstrable potential to become future leaders, decision-makers, and opinion formers.

As of today, there are around 200 Chevening alumni in Armenia, among them senior government officials and staff, members of parliament, influential civil society representatives and opinion makers, media professionals, staff of international agencies, and businesses.

Applications for 2024/2025 Chevening Scholarships will be open between 12 September and 7 November 2023.
