British Ambassador hosts event for returning Chevening scholars
The British Ambassador to Guatemala, Thomas Carter, held a breakfast for returning Guatemalan Chevening scholars from 2015/2016.
The reception was also attended by Chevening scholars from previous years, other professionals that pursued independent studies in the UK and senior officials from the Embassy. During the 2015/2016 academic year the Chevening Scholarship Programme sent a record number of 4 scholars to the UK from Guatemala.
The British Ambassador to Guatemala, Thomas Carter, said:
The Chevening Programme is an important part of the UK investment in Guatemala. Our aim is to give Guatemalan high achievers the support to realise their potential to the full 鈥� to help build a more prosperous and stable Guatemala. I congratulate the returning Chevening scholars on their remarkable achievement.
Chevening Scholarships are the UK Government鈥檚 global scholarship programme. The scholarships support study at UK universities 鈥� mostly one year master鈥檚 degrees 鈥� for individuals with demonstrable potential to become future leaders, decision-makers, and opinion formers.
