Our scholars

Watch videos of our scholars to learn how important these scholarships are to the youth of southwest Madagascar, the Roger Samba and J. Paul Getty Scholarship really does help to change lives - here some our scholarship students give some insight into how it's altered theirs.

Carole feels very lucky to have this opportunity to study for a degree in Marine Biodiversity Conservation, and wants to encourage others to apply for the award as well.

Olivia is a 2nd year student at the Institute Halieutique et des
Sciences Marines (IHMS) in Toliara, and wants to be a leader in natural resource management.

Thanks to the scholarship Livitiana is now a Masters student at the
IHSM - and wants to work as a marine biologist once he finishes
his degree.

Faralahy found out about the scholarship while working part time at
Blue Ventures, and can now continue with the education he had
to abandon in 2009 due to money issues.
