Celebrating Zimbabwean Students: Erasmus+ Scholarship Send-Off Event

The European Union Delegation to Zimbabwe recently organized a special send-off event for seven outstanding Zimbabwean students who have been awarded Erasmus+ scholarships to study in Europe. The informal event, held at the EU Delegation, provided an opportunity for these students to interact with the EU Ambassador, Erasmus alumni, and scholarship experts during a pre-departure orientation.

The EU Delegation to Zimbabwe recently organized a special pre-departure event to celebrate the achievements of seven Zimbabwean students awarded the prestigious Erasmus+ Scholarships. This year, these exceptional students will study in France, Germany, Czechia, and Portugal, pursuing various fields such as social work, governance and administration of leisure and sports, technology and management of circular economy, cartography, and advanced structural analysis and design with composite materials.

The Erasmus+ program is a flagship educational initiative of the European Union, fostering academic and cultural exchange between European countries and partner nations. For Zimbabwe, this program not only enhances educational opportunities but also strengthens bilateral, promotes cultural enrichment and mutual learning.

As the students prepare to depart for Europe in the coming weeks, we extend our heartfelt congratulations and best wishes. Their journey represents not only personal achievement but also the growing partnership between Zimbabwe and the European Union.
