Special DAAD scholarships for the tsunami region
The German Academic Exchange Service ( DAAD ) is continuing its aid programme for the areas in South Asia that were worst hit by the tsunami by introducing new scholarships to enable the training of experts about how best to act when a catastrophe hits.
Supported financially by the German Foreign Office, the DAAD will be sponsoring stays in Germany for graduates, doctoral students and scientists from India, Indonesia, Thailand, and Sri Lanka who would like to carry out further studies or research in such fields as the geosciences, ecology, medicine and, crisis and conflict management. The deadline for applications for 2006 is 30th November 2005.
