Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps he is taking to help ensure Chevening scholarships remain accessible to people in Afghanistan.
The application window for Chevening Scholarships is open to Afghans resident outside Afghanistan in a country eligible for overseas development aid until 7 November. Due to risks that are outside our control, we are not in a position to offer scholarships to Afghans resident in Afghanistan for academic year 2024/25.
