Thanks to the 2024 South Africa Selection Committee

MMEG extends heartfelt thanks and congratulations to the South Africa Program’s Selection Committee members for their dedication and success in completing yet another round of selections. On December 14, 2023, they identified ten extraordinary women from a large pool of applicants and highlighted them as potential grantees. MMEG’s Board of Directors recently reviewed these recommendations and is delighted to have approved all ten recommended grants

The review process started with 269 applications. After three rounds of review, the committee selected 10 finalists representing 5 different countries. These finalists are academically ambitious: half are pursuing doctoral degrees and the other half, master's degrees, with various majors and concentrations.

The Selection Committee is also diverse. It consists both of returning members and five new members, all from diverse cultural backgrounds who bring unique perspectives and experiences to the decision making process.

We are thankful for every individual’s contribution to MMEG's story. Their ongoing engagement and support are essential to MMEG's mission,
