Scholarships and Educational Exchanges for Development (SEED) Program

The Scholarships and Educational Exchanges for Development (SEED) Program is a short-term study and research scholarship enabling Mongolian students to study in Canada to contribute to implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The program offers placements at bachelor, master and doctoral levels for periods ranging from one to two academic terms or several months. The scholarship covers travel, insurance and living-related costs and aims to strengthen Canada–Mongolia cooperation and capacity for sustainable development.
