Our mission is to support the people of Bhutan in reaching their full potential by developing local capacity. In alignment with this mission, and in honor of the Foundation’s founder, Dr. Bruce Bunting, we launched the ‘Bhutan Foundation – Bruce Bunting Scholarship’ in 2020. This was made possible through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the College of Natural Resources (CNR), Royal University of Bhutan. CNR is Bhutan’s leading institution for tertiary education in Agriculture and Sustainable Natural Resources Management.
We are thrilled to share the renewal of the Partnership Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the College of Natural Resources (CNR), Royal University of Bhutan. We are supporting five scholarships over the period of three years to Bhutanese candidates from government and non-government organizations to study in CNR at the master’s degree level either in Natural Resource Management or Conservation Biology.
Since the commencement of the scholarship program in 2020, we have provided scholarship support to six in-service students to pursue bachelor degrees in animal science, Agriculture and Food Science and Technology over three years.
