Community Development Programme (CDP) Scholarship
The Volta River Authority (VRA) is committed to the sustainable development of its impacted communities by nurturing the potential of talented individuals through its Community Development Programme (CDP).
As part of this initiative, the Educational Scheme under the CDP is dedicated to providing equal opportunities to brilliant but needy students.
We believe that investing in education is key to unlocking the potential of young people to contribute meaningfully to their communities and society at large. Through this scholarship program, the VRA offers financial assistance to students pursuing tertiary education who are native and resident in the impacted communities of the VRA's operations.
