As an Africentric Institute, the Delmore “Buddy” Daye Learning Institute (DBDLI) creates educational change and genuine opportunities for learners and communities of African ancestry to reach their full potential. Educational research is vital to achieving our vision. We conduct and disseminate learnings from that research, providing policy analysis that informs policymakers, educators, parents, and the general public on how to best improve educational opportunities and outcomes for Nova Scotian learners of African descent.
The Institute works directly with African Nova Scotian / African Canadian organizations, communities, government partners, and educational institutions to identify, develop, and implement educational and community capacity enhancement policies, programs and services. Post-secondary education is an important opportunity that requires financial resources. We believe that every student should have access to a relevant and accurate scholarship and bursary resource list.
The purpose of this booklet is to provide financial source options for learners of African ancestry. Each scholarship is identified and has a summary of the criteria and a link to find out more and apply.
