Guinea.- The National Lottery of Guinea (LONAGUI) has launched its fourth scholarship programme<\/strong>, offering 15 fully funded master’s scholarships as part of its corporate social responsibility (CSR) programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LONAGUI said the initiative reflects its continued investment in education and youth development. “LONAGUI reaffirms its commitment to youth and education<\/strong> through its CSR programme. The LONAGUI scholarship is a scholarship programme initiated by LONAGUI in the execution of its CSR policy,” the lottery said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Successful applicants will receive full tuition for Master I and Master II studies, together with a monthly maintenance allowance of GNF500,000 (US$58) for 10 months.

The scholarships will be allocated across several categories, including dedicated awards for women and disadvantaged students<\/strong>.
