North Korean Scholarship Holders visit HSF Headquarters

The Hanns Seidel Foundation supports two North Korean students of the Eberswalde University of Sustainable Development (HNEE) through its scholarship program and recently invited them to visit the headquarters in Munich.

This month the two North Korean scholarship holders visited the Hanns Seidel Foundation's (HSF) headquarters in Munich and met among others Dr. Susanne Luther, Head of the Institute for International Cooperation, Mr. Alexander Ganepola, Project Coordinator for the locations Korea and Mongolia, and Mr. Felix Glenk, former Project Manager of HSF Korea and future representative of the office in Mongolia.

 

The two scholarship holders and the HSF staff together visited the forestry experimental garden Grafrath and the students shared their experiences and impressions of their time at HNEE with Dr. Jutta Möhringer, head of the Institute for the Promotion of Gifted Students at HSF.

 

The HSF scholarship program is designed to provide both individual and long-term support. The alumni are given the opportunity to expand already existing contacts, to conduct an international exchange of views, and to carry out joint projects.
