About

The EU Scholarship Programme, implemented to support the Turkish Cypriot community’s alignment with the European Union (EU), has enabled more than 2,450 Turkish Cypriots to pursue education and training opportunities in EU Member States since 2007, providing a total of €43 million in scholarships.

Since June 2022, the programme has been implemented by the Goethe-Institut.

Main objectives of the programme

  • Strengthening Social and Cultural Links with the EU
    To reinforce the social, cultural, and educational ties between the Turkish Cypriot community and the European Union, offering participants the opportunity to experience EU values, cultural diversity, and lifestyle first-hand.
  • Supporting Economic Development and Workforce Skills
    To help bridge the gap between the skills available in the workforce and those demanded by employers, thereby contributing to the economic development and competitiveness of the Turkish Cypriot community.
