The Changemaker Scholarship was established in collaboration with the TSH Talent Foundation to support talented young people who aspire to make a positive impact on the world and see education as the key to doing so. The scholarship covers tuition fees for a one‑year master’s programme at various UM faculties and provides accommodation, but it goes beyond financial support alone. Recipients are offered housing at The Social Hub through the TSH Talent Foundation and gain access to mentorship, professional development workshops, and a peer‑learning framework designed to foster changemaking. Being part of this vibrant community offers an immersive experience in which personal growth, collaboration, and purpose‑driven learning go hand in hand.
