\"\"The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Scholarship Programme<\/a> (or MSP) offers scholarships to professionals from ten countries. The scholarships can be used for short courses in the Netherlands. The programme is funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs.<\/p>\n

\n

Aim<\/h2>\n

The overall aim of the MSP is to contribute to the democratic transition in the participating countries. It also aims at building capacity within organisations by enabling employees to take part in short courses in various fields of study.<\/p>\n

Scholarships are available for short courses with a duration between two and twelve weeks.<\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/em><\/div>\n
    <\/div>\n

    While scholarships are awarded to individuals, the need for training must be demonstrated in the context of the organisation for which the applicant works. The training must help the organisation develop its capacity. This means that employers must nominate an applicant and motivate his or her application in a supporting letter.<\/p>\n
