• Dr. Martha Farrell International Scholarship for Global Leaders

In honour of Dr Martha Farrell, who taught in their Master of Arts in Global Leadership Program (MAGL), Royal Roads University, Canada will launch the Dr Martha Farrell International Scholarship for Global Leaders. This scholarship is designed to support students who have demonstrated global leadership through outstanding contribution to their communities, and who are committed to making a further contribution but would be unable to participate in the MAGL program without significant financial assistance.

The scholarship will enhance global leadership in three inter-connected ways:

• Two students annually will be equipped as global leaders
• The communities of these students will be enhanced through their global leadership
• Other cohort members will become better global leaders as the program quality is increased, and RRU itself will be heightened by the inclusion of these students
