Within the framework of individual sponsorships, members of the Association of Friends can support former participants of BNITM training courses in developing countries by sponsoring their professional development with at least 300 € per year for 3 years, e.g. by paying fees and travel expenses for scientific training. The sponsors can choose from among the applications and, if necessary, get to know the candidates personally at the appropriate opportunity. For example, a visit to a BNITM training course in a developing country to get to know candidates can be arranged.
