Presenting our 2025 Burnett Scholars 🎉 From over 350 applications, these six conservation practitioners, from Angola, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe, were selected to receive full scholarships to study on our MSc Conservation Science programme. The Burnett Scholarships scheme was launched in 2024 for applicants from the KAZA region of southern Africa, to study a Masters’ degree at DICE. Through the generosity of the Notsew Orm Sands Foundation, the £1.5 million grant covers full tuition fees, a monthly stipend and travel expenses to and from the UK, for six students each year for three years. It also provides separate funding for 60 individuals to have Burnett ranger training at the Southern African Wildlife College over three years. We are excited to welcome our 2025 Burnett Scholars to DICE. Key an eye out for applications to join DICE as a 2026 Burnett Scholar 👀 Hear from last year's Burnett Scholars on YouTube: https://lnkd.in/e3NxkxAw
