The International People's College, Denmark is pleased to announce a global call for applications for a limited number of Dr. Peter Manniche Foundation Scholarships for students in developing countries. Application Deadline: 1st April 2017 Eligible Countries: Developing Countries To be taken at (country): International People's College, Denmark About the Award: For almost 100 years, the International People’s College in Elsinore, Denmark, has worked to promote intercultural understanding, prioritizing the human being above all political or religious affiliation, that which is common to us all before that which divides us. All of this was made possible due to the vision of one man, Dr. Peter Manniche, the founder of the International People’s College. A man, who wholeheartedly believed that a school molded in the Danish Grundtvigian Folk High School tradition, could be the foundation of a long lasting peace between all peoples of the world, transcending self-interest to work together to secure a common future. Since its founding in 1921, the International People’s College has worked as a liberal peace academy, gathering young people from every part of the world to learn from each other, engage with one another and form enduring bonds of friendship, respect and mutual understanding. As part of the legacy of Dr. Peter Manniche, a foundation was formed – the Dr. Peter Manniche Foundation – that should secure the school’s vision even after the passing of Manniche himself. The foundation aims to make it possible for students from anywhere in the world to become a student at the International People’s College, including students who would not financially be able to afford so. Type: Undergraduate/Masters Eligibility: Scholarships are primarily granted to young women and men from developing countries, who have demonstrated active participation in their local communities, an interest in intercultural subjects, and who vigorously believe in and will pursue the ideals and core values as those of the IPC. The final allocations of scholarships are dependent on the motivation of the individual to become an active student at the school expressed through an essay as part of the application.
