The Canon Collins Trust scholarships seek to support exceptional individuals who are committed to social justice in Southern Africa, and for whom a postgraduate qualification is an essential tool in working towards advancing economic justice, and promoting equitable economic development that realizes socio-economic rights for all. Funding for these scholarships has been made possible through the support received from the Sol Plaatje Educational Project (SPEP). Furthermore, successful applicants will be expected to apply for the 2022 Wits University Postgraduate Merit Award. ## Eligibility Criteria for Southern Africans In order to qualify for the fully-funded master’s degree and internship opportunity, eligible Southern African applicants must: - be a resident national of South Africa, Namibia or Zimbabwe; - be applying for a full-time Masters of Commerce in Applied Development Economics at the University of the Witwatersrand in 2022; - hold an honors’ level academic qualification with a minimum grade point average of 75%, or be in their final year of Honors study in the year of the application; - demonstrate a commitment to apply their skills and qualifications to advancing social justice, and promoting equitable economic development that realizes socio-economic rights; - be available to undertake a 6-month paid internship at the Institute of Economic Justice immediately after completion of study. ## How to Apply for Master of Commerce Scholarship and Internship Please download and read [the guidelines](https://canoncollins.ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/2021/06/29144143/Economic-Justice-Scholarship_Guidelines-for-applicants.pdf) carefully before applying for this scholarship.
