Who can apply

Ugandan applicants are eligible, with Global South participation encouraged. The current call requires five years of relevant professional, activist or social-movement experience, or three years of advanced graduate study in a related field. Applicants need strong English and commitment to full participation.

About this opportunity

The school introduces feminist economic thought, methodologies and policy applications through interactive workshops. It takes place from 29 June to 1 July 2027 before the IAFFE conference.

Benefits
School participation is free, and selected participants may receive travel grants. Participants learn with feminist economists and develop professional networks.

Requirements
Complete the application form and establish the relevant experience or advanced-study eligibility. Participants are expected to attend the pre-conference and the full IAFFE conference on 2–4 July.

How to apply
Follow the Application Form link on IAFFE\'s school page and submit a complete application by the deadline. Incomplete applications and extensions are not accepted.

Find scholarships, postgraduate study and internships

Explore opportunities from Uganda and abroad. Location describes where an opportunity is based; check the official eligibility rules to confirm whether Ugandan, African or other international applicants can apply.

Fully funded scholarships in Canada, the USA and Europe

Compare undergraduate, master's and PhD awards by eligible nationality, subject and funding coverage. A tuition waiver does not necessarily cover living costs, insurance or travel. For medical study, confirm the exact degree and whether clinical training is included. High school awards have different age and admission requirements from university scholarships.

For US universities offering full scholarships, check the university's international admissions and financial aid pages. Confirm whether admission and funding require separate applications, and whether support is renewable each year.

Paid internships abroad and online internships

For internships in Europe or elsewhere, check nationality and enrolment requirements, the stipend, accommodation and travel coverage. Paid does not necessarily mean fully funded. Remote internships may still restrict the countries where participants can work. To intern abroad without programme fees, compare direct employer applications and check which costs you must pay yourself.

For summer placements, verify the start date and application year in the official call. Search the listings for a provider or subject, such as Expedia, EU delegation traineeships or agriculture in Germany, and confirm availability with that organisation.

NGO jobs, entry-level jobs and internships in Uganda

Check the posting date, closing date, duty station and required experience. For jobs with no experience, look for an explicit entry-level or graduate requirement; an urgent vacancy may still require experience. Verify American Embassy vacancies through the embassy's official recruitment service and New Vision vacancies against the original employer notice.

Application years and named scholarship programmes

Use the intake and deadline in each listing when comparing 2026 and 2027 opportunities. A 2022 notice is historical unless the provider has published a new call. Before applying to Yale Young African Scholars or an opportunity described as a UNICEF scholarship, verify the programme name, funding and current eligibility directly with the organisation. A search phrase alone does not confirm an available award.
