Funding since 2024

Project: Scholarships for medical students at the Catholic University in Beira

Contact with the Dutch foundation Doctors for Mozambique was made via a former member of the Board of Trustees of the Aumund Foundation. Harrie and Birgitta van der Meeren, who teach at the Catholic University in Beira, founded this organisation which awards scholarships to talented young people from financially challenging circumstances in rural areas of Mozambique, who would not have been able to study medicine without this support. One specific objective is to include women in the scholarship programme. Birgitta van der Meeren says, “It is almost impossible for girls from rural regions to become doctors. This is one of the consequences of the cultural backdrop in rural areas, where young girls must still enter into arranged marriages and therefore have no opportunity for intellectual development.”

Every January a new cohort is chosen from around 20 candidates who take part in a three-day selection process.

The Aumund Foundation is supporting the 2024 and 2025 cohorts for the seven years until they graduate. This will give 15 young people a good start and enable them to lead a self-determined life.

“Well trained young peo­ple are the motor of so­ci­ety” was one of Franz-Walter Aumund’s firm beliefs, which is why fund­ing of train­ing and ed­u­ca­tion has been one of the fo­cal points of his phil­an­thropic com­mit­ment from the be­gin­ning. This is un­der­pinned in par­tic­u­lar by the award­ing of schol­ar­ships.

The best ed­u­ca­tional offer­ing is worth­less if chil­dren and young peo­ple are not phys­ically ca­pa­ble of par­tic­ipat­ing in it. Based on this ex­pe­ri­ence the fund­ing of health pro­jects has be­come a new focus of Franz-Walter Aumund’s phil­an­thropic com­mit­ment in recent years.
