Nuffic was closed on 28, 29 and 30 April. Therefore, all questions received on or after 26 April have not been answered.
The overall aim of the NFP is to help alleviate qualitative and quantitative shortages of skilled manpower within a wide range of governmental, private and non-governmental organisations. This is done by offering fellowships to mid-career professionals to improve the capacity of their employing organisations.
The fellowship is a supplement to the candidate’s salary and a contribution towards the expenses related to the course or study programme.
