Munich Intellectual Property Law Center Scholarship for Students from Developing Countries to Study in Germany

0

MIPLC is a part of the DAAD’s scholarship program for “Development-Related Postgraduate Courses”. If you would like to apply for the scholarship offered in this context, please note that several special conditions apply.

What is Covered by the Scholarship?

Scholarship recipients will get

A full MIPLC fee waiver

A monthly stipend of EUR 850

Payments towards health, accident and liability insurance coverage in Germany

A travel allowance, unless these costs are covered by the home country or by another funding source

A study and research allowance

A mandatory two-month German course before the start of the MIPLC LL.M. program (August and September, in Munich or another German city).

Since the DAAD scholarship includes a full fee waiver, you must apply simultaneously for MIPLC financial assistance (cf. section 2a).

Eligibility Criteria

Please also refer to the brochure for “Development-Related Postgraduate Courses” for more information. Where MIPLC and DAAD requirements differ, the stricter one applies. You are eligible for the DAAD scholarship if you meet the following requirements in addition to the MIPLC admission criteria (cf. section 1):

You are from a developing country (according to the OECD DAC list) and have not been living outside your home country (or another developing country) for more than the past two years.

You hold at least a four-year Bachelor’s degree (or a three-year Bachelor’s degree plus a further degree), completed with above-average results.

You received your latest degree no more than six years before your application.

You have at least two years of full-time professional experience gained in a public authority or a state or private company in a developing country. To meet this requirement, it is sufficient if you have completed the two years by February of the year in which you intend to start your studies at MIPLC. Scientific university staff and academics are not the core target group of this program and are therefore considered only in exceptional cases.

Special Application Deadlines

You have to apply more than a year in advance, i.e. between June 1 and October 15 for the following academic year.

Application and Selection Procedure

Please refer to the Application Instructions for detailed information.

Complete applications will be evaluated for admission on a rolling basis. From all admitted applicants, we will put together a shortlist of candidates, who will be invited for a video conference interview taking place in January or February. Based on these interviews, the MIPLC will pre-select the scholars and the DAAD will take the final decision in early March.

Social Policy and Research Intern for Contributing to the work of Social Policy and Research: Public Finance 4 Children pillar a tUNCEF Kigali- Rwanda: Deadline: 17 Jun 2021

0

UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.

Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.

And we never give up.

For every child, 

How can you make a difference?

Background

Like in many other countries across the globe, the COVID-19 pandemic had a profound impact on Rwanda’s economy, as the annual GDP has contracted by 3.4 percent in GDP in 2020 compared to a growth rate of 9.5 percent in 2019. Except for agriculture which experienced an increase of 1 percent, all sectors of the economy recorded a decrease, industry sector dropped by 4 percent and services by 6 percent. However, the recovery is foreseen for the next three years, with 5.1 percent growth in 2021, 7.0 percent in 2022 and 8.1 percent in 2023.

The latest IMF reviews (2020-2021) have reported that the fiscal toll of the pandemic on Rwanda’s economy is large, and it is expected to cause a revenue shortfall of 2.2 percent of GDP and increase the fiscal deficit at 8.5 percent of GDP in FY2020/21 up from 6.1% in 2019, while the ratio of external public debt is projected at 75.7 percent of GDP at end-2021 up from 45.4 percent in 2019. However, with the development and approvals of COVID-19 vaccines and therapeutics, the economic forecast is more promising. The country’s IMF economic forecast shows that Rwanda’s GDP growth for 2021 will be 5.1 percent and 7.0 percent in 2022, but it will take time for the Fiscal Space to recover.

UNICEF Rwanda supports the Governments in strengthening social sector programming and engaging in the budget process to influence allocation decisions and improve public spending efficiency, equity, and budget transparency. This is being done by developing annual budget briefs for priority sectors for children mainly (i) social protection, (ii) education, (iii) health, (iv) WASH, (v) Nutrition and the overall national budget brief. In addition, UNICEF does the monitoring of fiscal space, financing policies and sectoral financing strategies.

The above portfolio has been growing recently and the demand for timely and quality analysis is also increasing.
