Haggar DMCC has been a cornerstone of business and industry in Sudan since 1904, with diversified investments spanning Northern and Southern Sudan. Guided by principles of innovation and sustainability, the Group has steadily expanded its regional footprint, establishing a presence in South Sudan, Egypt and Rwanda.

In 2013, inspired by Anthony Haggar's vision, the Haggar Group partnered with UWC to launch a scholarship programme that supports high-achieving Sudanese students every two years. Uniquely, the initiative pairs students from North and South Sudan, through UWC matched funding, providing them with exceptional educational opportunities while promoting unity, mutual respect and a shared commitment to future leadership in the region.

 

"The Haggar scholarship was truly a transformative experience in my life—it completely changed my trajectory."

- Mohammed Babeker, first Haggar scholar, currently pursuing an MBA at Stanford University

 

"At UWC, I learned that if running is difficult, I can try flying."

- Alshimaa, Haggar scholar, UWC East Africa alumna now studying astrophysics at Wellesley College
