Deadline (Application): Queen Elizabeth Scholars
The Canadian Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Scholarships program (QES) was created to improve global talent exchange between Canada and other nations. The program aims to develop the next generation of innovative leaders and community builders by providing enriched academic, professional, and cross-cultural experiences and by facilitating lasting local and global community engagement.
QES 2024 will support projects that focus on health, education, social and economic development, while enhancing academic diplomacy.
Projects will support international study, research or internships for Canadian students and/or scholarships for incoming international graduate students to study or do research. All QES funded activities must be for academic credit/recognition.
Proposals must demonstrate a partnership between a Canadian university and a partner institution/organization in at least one of the eligible countries.
Priority will be given to project proposals that focus on diversity and inclusion and which results in an increased contribution to local and global communities by young leaders.
Canadian universities may seek up to $300,000 in funding from QES, for projects running from January 2024 to December 2027.
Dalhousie is limited to leading one application for this call. For this reason, an internal EOI must be submitted to ird@dal.ca by June 5, 2023. The EOI should provide a one-paragraph summary of the proposed project and include the proposed partner institution/organization.
