The Netherlands Fellowship Programmes (NFP) are demand-driven fellowship programmes designed to foster capacity building within organizations in 57 countries in development by providing training and education to their mid-career staff members. The NFP are funded by the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs from the budget for development cooperation.
The need for education and training must occur within the organization of the applicant. This means that applicants must be nominated by their employers. In fact, applications without the support of an employer will not be considered.
Nuffic (the Netherlands Organization for International Cooperation in Higher Education) administers the NFP on behalf of the Minister for Development Cooperation. The Minister determines the policy that governs the framework of the NFP programme. Nuffic manages and monitors the programmes as a whole. The Dutch organizations selected to provide the required education and training are responsible for awarding and administering the fellowships.

The Copernicus Scholarship offers six outstanding prospective non-Dutch students the opportunity to follow the Sustainable Development Prestige Master`s programme at Utrecht University. The scholarship programme is highly selective. Only candidates of the highest achievement and promise relevant for the Sustainable Development Prestige Master`s programme may receive a scholarship.
The master`s programme Sustainable Development consists of three tracks:
- Energy & Resources;
- Land Use, Environment and Biodiversity;
- Environmental Policy and Management.
The six scholarships are equally divided between the three tracks. This results into two scholarships per track per year.
Duration and number of scholarships
Selected students will receive a scholarship for a maximum period of 24 months.
Amount of scholarship
Selected Master`s students are awarded a scholarship up to a maximum of 2,500 Euro per year, for the duration of two years. In total this amounts to 5,000 Euro.
Aim of the programme
The scholarship is meant to make a significant contribution towards the costs of travel and living while studying in Utrecht. It is necessary to find additional funding to be able to finance your study and stay completely. As one of the requirements for being granted a residence permit in the Netherlands, students from non EEA countries must prove to the IND (immigration and naturalisation office) that they have sufficient financial means. The university advises a budget, not including the tuition fee, of 10,000 to 14,000 Euros per year to cover costs for rent, insurance, living expenses, course books and local transportation alone.

As PhD-candidate you are part of the joint programme of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Utrecht University/Faculty of Social Sciences/Cultural Anthropology. This programme is known as the IS-academy.
The subject of research is “Poverty reduction and good governance”. Within the wide scope of research on this subject is chosen for research on two themes: “the political dimension of poverty reduction and drivers of change” with a focus on two core questions:
- What are the political dimensions of poverty reduction and what factors determine shifts from exclusion to inclusion of poverty concerns in political arenas and policy agendas?
- What are the political dimensions of so-called “failing states”, particularly in relation to intrastate social violence and political conflict?
The project is situated within the research programme “Political conflict, cultural trauma and social reconciliation” (CTR) which is part of the Research Centre CERES. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will be involved in the guiding and supervision of the research projects.
