Scholar in the International Students Program

“The Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung scholarship is a unique opportunity for me to develop academically and personally and to sharpen my socio-political awareness. The inspiring seminars, university group meetings and conversations with my fellow scholarship holders have greatly expanded my understanding of Germany and Europe. I’m happy to be part of this unique community.”

Scholar in the Students Program

“The support encourages me to think and act across disciplines — whether in discussions with fellow scholars, speakers, in volunteer work, or during seminars both in Germany and abroad. This intense exchange about political and societal issues inspires me in my studies and beyond. I feel connected to friends and mentors as part of the KAS community, deeply embedded in our society.”

Scholar in the Journalism Training Program

“As a scholar in the Journalism Training Program, I particularly value the professional journalists, speakers, and friends in the JONA family. They are always there for me and have often guided me in my personal growth and during tough career decisions. When applying, it was important to me that the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung shared my values, such as helping others. I volunteer, for example, as a reader at a children’s library.”

Scholar in the Doctoral Program

“The doctoral scholarship provides not only financial support but also the chance to engage with other doctoral candidates from various fields and to build inspiring connections. For me, there’s nothing more motivating than exchanging ideas with fellow scholars who share the same goals and aim to make a difference in society. The scholarship also feels like recognition of what I’ve achieved on my journey so far.”

Scholar in the Artist Program

“The EHF scholarship has been and continues to be an essential part of my artistic career in many ways. The funding allowed me to focus entirely on my artistic work in the studio for a full year. Looking back, the drafts and processes developed during the scholarship year provided decisive impulses for some of my most important works.”
