Chevening is the UK Government’s prestigious international scholarships programme.  

Funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, and partner organisations, we offer exceptional future leaders the opportunity to further their education in the UK, so that they can drive impact in areas of shared priority for the UK and their home countries.

At a time of unprecedented global challenges, the Chevening network offers a real cause for hope. Our community of leaders and decision-makers is already making a measurable impact in areas like climate action, economic prosperity, and conflict recovery.

Chevening’s vision

The Rebecca Dykes Chevening Scholarship

The Rebecca Dykes Chevening Scholarship has been set up in memory of Rebecca Dykes, with the aim of continuing her humanitarian and stabilisation work for refugees and other vulnerable communities, with a focus on women’s empowerment and preventing violence against women. It is open to female Lebanese applicants (or Palestinian applicants residing in Lebanon) who wish to undertake studies in gender studies, peace and conflict studies, development and human rights, refugee and migration studies, and other related subject areas.
