In line with this, the foundation places special emphasis on youth as fundamental pillars for establishing sustainable democracy and fostering good governance in the present and the future. KAS provides opportunities for moral and material support to promising young individuals seeking academic expertise and skills in democracy, local governance, and development disciplines through local scholarships. These scholarships target aspiring future leaders across various social, political, and economic domains. Applicants must demonstrate their leadership potential to be considered for this scholarship.

Successful candidates will have their tuition fees covered by the scholarship for a duration of one year, as determined by the university. Scholars have the option to extend their scholarships if they meet all submission deadlines and requirements.

Moreover, KAS will offer a stipend of 1,000,000 UGX per term to cover learning materials and books. The students are expected to manage additional costs like transportation, research, and other study-related expenses independently or through alternate sources.

Scholars gain access to KAS networks and are presented with exclusive learning opportunities through networking events and additional resources.
