Are you trying to find a way to travel to Germany and change the world? For young leaders who are committed to addressing issues that affect women and girls, such as gender-based violence, child marriage, and disability rights, the One Young World (OYW) Hauwa Ojeifo Scholarship 2025 presents an amazing opportunity. This fully financed worldwide scholarship gives changemakers the resources, expertise, and international exposure they need to spearhead revolutionary change.
Gender equality by 2030 is still a long way off, despite attempts. With one in five young women getting married before turning 18 and women being disproportionately affected by mental health disorders as a result of social injustices, many women still lack control over their rights and health. The Hauwa Ojeifo Global Impact Fund for Women & Girls established this transformative fellowship in collaboration with One Young World to address these problems.
Scholars will be given lifetime participation in the OYW Ambassador group, have the opportunity to apply for grant money of up to $25,000 USD, and attend the One Young World Summit 2025 in Munich, Germany (November 3–6). You should not pass up this opportunity if you are a young leader dedicated to justice and equity. Apply right away.
