Sagar Amrut Scholarships
India is a trusted partner for capacity-building needs of the Pacific Island nations.
Almost 1000 government officials, professionals and executives have availed the Indian
Technical and Economic Cooperation (ITEC) scholarships in both civilian and defence
courses in the last 10 years.
At the Third FIPIC Summit in May 2023, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi announced the
Sagar Amrut Package of scholarships, providing a further impetus to India’s capacity-building
commitments to countries in this region. Under the Sagar Amrut Scholarships, India is
responding to the specific training and capacity-building needs of the PIC states, with
200 fully funded scholarship slots each year for participants from PIC states.
Since the announcement, more than 288 individuals from Pacific Island Countries have
participated in various Sagar Amrut courses.
Courses under this package for this year are already uploaded.
