Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On November 11th, 2014 Chinese Ambassador Liu Xianfa granted 20 Kenyan students "Chinese Ambassador Scholarship" worth 2 million Kenyan Shillings. China sponsored these students study in China (the scholarships cover tuition and additional expenses). The Chinese Ambassador Scholarship program was established in 2013 by the Chinese Embassy to Kenya and the University of Nairobi. The scholarships appear to be distributed to Kenyan students on an annual basis, because in 2016, 20 Kenyan students from 6 different universities across the country were provided the scholarships as well.
