Information about the Fund
The Borjan Tanevski Memorial Fund was set up after the untimely death of our recent graduate, with the support of his family, faculty, fellow students and friends.
The moderate funds collected are used to award a fellowship each year to an undergraduate student at ACT - typically the award is of 2500Euro.
We decide on the scholarship on the basis of an annual essay competition with a theme within "Peace and Cooperation in South-East Europe".
The jury consists of 5 academics, 3 from ACT, 1 from a Greek university outside and 1 from a FYR Macedonian university.
On the theme of the essay competition, we also organize an international student conference, normally alternating between Skopje and Thessaloniki.
