Universities Canada is pleased to announce that the BCDI 2030 program will be launching its second call for proposals for scholarship projects for studies in Canada.

Each university can submit one proposal for a scholarship project, in partnership with a higher education institution in one of the 26 eligible countries. Study projects in Canada are for a maximum of four years and must be implemented between 2024 and 2028.
