Educational initiatives launch new study abroad and STEM scholarships

Intercultura has launched new study abroad programs for the 2027-2028 school year, with applications open until November 10. The initiative allows high school students to attend schools in approximately sixty different countries while living with local host families. To ensure accessibility regardless of socioeconomic status, the organization is offering over one thousand scholarships, covering between 25% and 100% of participation costs based on financial need. New destinations include Argentina, New Zealand, Guatemala, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway.

Separately, Schindler Italia announced a new scholarship initiative called ‘Women in STEM’ starting in December 2026. The program will provide 1,600 euro grants to female university students pursuing degrees in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. To qualify, students must be regularly enrolled and maintain a minimum grade average of 28/30. The initiative aims to increase female representation in technical and scientific fields.
