Joint Japan/World Bank Graduate Scholarship Program (WBGSP)

The World Bank, with funding from the Government of Japan,
established the World Bank Graduate Scholarship Program (WBGSP) for graduate
studies in subjects related to economic development. Each year, the Program
awards scholarships to individuals from World Bank member countries to undertake
graduate studies at renowned universities throughout member countries of the
Bank.

Now in its 23d year, the Regular Program has awarded 3,153 scholarships,
selected from 58,944 applicants. In addition, 1,226 scholarships have been
awarded in the various JJ/WBGSP Partnership Programs for a total of 4,379
awards.
Since the inception of the Program, the Government of Japan has provided over
204,7 million dollars to the Scholarship Program. The Program's objective is to
help create an international community of highly trained professionals working
in the field of economic and social development. The World Bank and the
Government of Japan require the scholars to return to their home countries on
completion of their study Programs and apply their enhanced knowledge and skills
to contribute to the development process in their respective regions and
communities.

Starting in 1992, a number of Partnership Programs have been launched, largely
to respond to the need for graduate study Programs which combine academic rigor
with specialized training in the practical aspects of policy-making. The
objective of these Programs is to prepare the participants for effective
policy-making roles in their home countries and regions.

The World Bank administers the Program through the World Bank Institute (WBI).
Policy guidance for the Program is provided by a Steering Committee comprised of
three Executive Directors and five senior managers of the Bank. A Secretariat
for day-to-day administration is maintained within WBI.
