ASEAN-CHINA YOUNG LEADERS SCHOLARSHIP

The ASEAN-China Young Leaders Scholarship (ACYLS) 2023/2024 is a fully funded scholarship, covering all program-related expenses including tuition waiver and other school fees, accommodation, round-trip international airfare, comprehensive medical insurance, and stipends. It is dedicated to young and promising ASEAN professionals with working experience to study for doctoral or master’s degrees in the People’s Republic of China. This program is an initiative in response to the call of the leaders of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and ASEAN Member States (AMS) to increase people-to-people exchanges, strengthen educational cooperation and promote academic exchanges and linkages between AMS and the PRC, to foster a third pillar of socio-cultural and people-to-people exchanges within the ASEAN-China relationship towards building a closer community of shared future.

ACYLS will support AMS nationals in their study towards doctoral or master’s degrees, participation in short-term research programs, participation in training courses, in the PRC.
