Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

In 2022, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce, through the Chinese Embassy in the Dominican Republic, provided masters and doctoral programs to Dominican Civil Servants and Academics based in Chinese Universities. The project was implemented through the Dominican Republic Ministry of Economy, Planning, and Development and applications to the program were required to be submitted by April 1, 2022. The specific number of scholarships and their value is not specified. It is unclear if any additional assistance was provided for students barring free tuition.

Staff comments

Commitment Start date estimated by taking the date of the announcement on the original source and implementation start date by the day which applications to the program were due. All programs had a cost of zero, which indicates some funding from the China Ministry of Commerce, however, it is unclear howe much money running these programs actually costs.
