SLT-MOBITEL has reaffirmed its dedication to environmental sustainability by awarding three scholarships to undergraduate students from the University of Colombo, Wayamba University of Sri Lanka, and Uva Wellassa University.
These research-based scholarship grants were designed to support studies focused on blue carbon ecosystems in Sri Lanka, fostering a deeper understanding and conservation of these vital environmental assets.
The SLT-MOBITEL Scholarship program has been open to all undergraduate students enrolled in universities registered under the University Grants Commission (UGC) where research is a compulsory credited module.
This initiative serves as a valuable platform, empowering young researchers to contribute meaningfully to the scientific studies and wise management of blue carbon ecosystems.
Selected scholars of 2024 have received financial aid to complete their research, gaining hands-on experience and advancing knowledge in this crucial area.
Each scholarship, valued at up to Rs. 250,000, provides the recipients with the opportunity to explore practical applications and promote sustainable practices.
