Quintin Hogg Trust?

Question

does anyone know anything about this organisation?

Who founded it? What is the mission of the organization? Why are they providing scholarship money? What special points of view do they bring?

thanks

Answer 1

The "theme" seems to be coming from a developing country, and having a plan to improve that country when they return.

Best to you.
