The Studera International Scholarship Foundation is a foundation of international students from different parts of the world, who seek to promote undergraduate, masters and doctoral studies for the benefit of poor and developing countries. The courses/programs/projects are ground-breaking, developing into methods or products, which are directly relevant for improving the livelihoods of poor people in developing countries. Instead of giving you fish, our responsibility is to link you to sponsors to enable you learn how to fish for yourself and others around you.
