The scholarship recipients noted that this project would help them access academic research and improve the quality of their work. Many expressed their gratitude for the introduction of digital tools such as the mobile app and digital platform, as well as the ability to electronically sign contracts, which has significantly simplified and accelerated the interaction process with the program.
