Expected results 2024: The programme as a whole will contribute to global sustainable development. The scholarship holders are expected to use their knowledge, insights, tools and networks in the work for sustainable development where they are. In this way, organizations/institutions have an improved access to skilled labor in specific areas – which leads to an increased capacity in low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda. Within 1-3 years, the programme is expected to contribute to organisations in partner countries having improved access to a skilled and equal workforce in relevant areas. Within 3-5 years, the programme is expected to contribute to an increased capacity of low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda and thus contribute to global sustainable development Expected immediate results The performance-related effects are that these change agents, through a university education and participation in NFGP, gain knowledge, insights, tools and a larger network. That they gain contacts and exchange experiences with other change agents and that they are strengthened in their leadership skills. The immediate/performance-related effects are as follows: • Awarded scholarship holders undergo and complete their studies at advanced level in Sweden. • Individuals are given tools to better contribute to global development • Individuals gain contacts and exchange of experience with other change agents. Expected results 2025: The Swedish Institute scholarship programme should according to the governing Strategy for innovation, partnership and capacity development 2024–2028 strengthen the capacity of relevant actors who can contribute to sustainable development in development countries through education. A prerequisite for this is that the selected scholarship holders are qualified to carry out and complete qualitative education on master’s level at Swedish universities. After completed master’s studies in Sweden, the scholarship holders are expected to have strengthened their abilities and capacity to contribute to sustainable development. This through employment in key positions in the private sector, public sector, academia or civil society in their home countries and that they use the knowledge and competences they gained through studies in Sweden to address societal challenges through innovative and effective measures.

(Nepal): The DFID-USAID co-funded Family Planning (FP) activity aims to generate new knowledge for better evidence-based programing that improves the health of women and children in Nepal through increased access to and utilization of FP methods. The activity specifically focuses on service delivery for women from vulnerable groups with low contraceptive prevalence and high fertility. Using FY 2015 funds, the project will support the testing of innovative models in six different districts with the purpose of gathering evidence for scale-up of effective FP interventions. Some examples of models to be tested include the introduction of interpersonal communication through female community health volunteers, roving providers to the poorly-staffed public health facilities and the provision of comprehensive FP services through mobile camps. Furthermore, this co-funded project will help support upcoming DFID-supported Nepal Health Sector Support Program in coordination with government counterparts.
