Horizons Scholarship

The Horizonte Scholarship is aimed at teacher training students with a migration background who are enrolled at a university in Hamburg. As a financial grant, it supports committed individuals from the Hamburg region and promotes their academic and professional development. The application period runs from May 18 to June 28, 2026. Within this timeframe, interested candidates can submit their documents and thus become part of a program that advances equal opportunities in education.

A prerequisite for funding is enrollment in a teacher training program at a university in Hamburg and a verifiable migration background. The scholarship is intended to motivate students to continue their studies with a high level of commitment and to work as teachers in Hamburg in the long term. The program aims to strengthen diversity in the teaching profession and promote intercultural exchange in schools. Through non-material support such as workshops and networking formats, participants additionally benefit from a sustainable network within Hamburg’s educational landscape.
