Am I eligible for a scholarship and how do I apply?

UNESCO has very scarce resources for training, fellowship and study grants. You must contact your country’s national commission for further information: UNESCO National Commisions. You can also consult IEFA, an internet database listing fellowship possibilities offered by 800 organizations.

Does UNESCO finance projects?

Assistance is given to a limited number of projects through UNESCO’s Participation Programme. To qualify for such assistance, member states must submit applications to their respective National Commissions for UNESCO. International Non-Governmental Organizations enjoying formal or operational relations with UNESCO may also apply.

Where can I find information about a higher education institute?

Institutional accreditation is normally decided by the national competent bodies in each country. Before you consult with one of the national bodies, data is available in both CD-ROM, print and online formats taken from a compilation of higher education institutions offering at least a postgraduate degree or a professional diploma in at least four years. The information in the compilation is gathered by the International Association of Universities (IAU) – an NGO based at UNESCO HQ in Paris, France.  These directories comprise the World Higher Education Database (WHED) and the International Handbook of Universities (both print and online) and can be ordered at www.unesco.org/iau/directories/index.html

list of institutions only is available on the Association’s website on www.unesco.org/iau/onlinedatabases/list.html     

IAU does not itself accredit these institutions – it collects information from the national competent bodies in each country and makes it available in a comparable way through its various reference guides.
