ITU-YES Scholarships

ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the leading United Nations agency for information and communication technology issues, and the global focal point for governments and the private sector in developing networks and services.

The "Youth Education Scheme (YES)" is one of the cornerstones of the ITU-D "Children and Youth" Special Initiative, in support of needy and deserving young people, from Least Developed Countries (LDCs), developing countries and countries in transition who wish to complete their tertiary education in the information and communication technologies (ICTs) and related fields. The objective is to enable motivated young people to contribute to the development of their communities, country and region using their achieved ICT knowledge and skills.

The programme supports new as well as continuing students and the next deadline for scholarship applications will be 31 March 2010.

In 2008/9 Anvar Nazarov has won this prestigious award.
