The United Nations University DAAD Scholarships will provide a monthly stipend of €14400 per year for the duration of the Doctoral Research up to a maximum of four years.
While the Doctoral programme is tuition-free, the stipend is expected to cover all living and education expenses. An additional allowance for travel or research will also be part of the scholarship offered by the DAAD.
Several other scholarships are available in the United States, Germany, United Kingdom, and Canada that offer full scholarships and monthly allowances. Here are some suggestions you should check out;

UNU-FLORES is delighted to announce a Doctoral Researcher opportunity as part of the DAAD Graduate School Scholarship Programme. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to conduct research work under one of three topic areas under the guidance of supervisors at both UNU-FLORES and Technische Universitaet Dresden. Students will also collaborate with fellow doctoral students and senior scientists in research, event organisation and participation, publications where possible, and contribute to the Implementation Plan of UNU-FLORES and the mission of the United Nations.
