DUDLEY D'EWES SCHOLARSHIPS

For Post-honours candidates

The mission of the Khula Cape Foundation is to preserve, promote and encourage literature, the visual and performing arts and the natural and cultural environment of the Western, Eastern and Northern Cape Provinces. It may not, therefore, fund anything that falls outside this prescription.

Dudley D'Ewes Scholarships up to the value of R10 000 each for post-honours studies are awarded annually. They are open to all in possession of a University Honours degree and candidates must potentially contribute to the fulfilment of the Foundation's mission.

Studies must be undertaken in South Africa.

At the discretion of the Foundation, scholarships may be renewed in whole or in part for a further period not exceeding one year provided the candidate submits a satisfactory Progress Report from the Supervisor/s.
