C.V. Raman Scholarship for African Researchers

Description

The C.V. Raman Scholarship is an Indian government programme designed for established African researchers holding a doctorate. It provides a research stay of 3 to 12 months at an Indian host institute that the applicant must identify. The coverage includes a monthly research allowance, a living allowance, as well as travel and accommodation costs. Applications are submitted through the ITEC programme and the Indian Embassy. The programme is open to researchers from Togo and across West Africa, with no announced nationality restrictions. The opening and closing calendar varies with each annual call: the dates shown are estimates and must be confirmed on the official website. The exact amount is not published by the organisation, meaning the support exists but is assessed on a case-by-case basis or takes the form of fee waivers. The reliability of this listing remains to be confirmed according to each call.
