The Asian Peacebuilders Scholarship (APS) is a joint initiative of the Nippon Foundation, The University for Peace (UPEACE), and Ateneo de Manila University (The Ateneo de Manila University – AdMU).

The goal of the program is to train young Asians to become peace-building practitioners, ready to take on leadership positions in organizations around the world. In particular, it helps to strengthen the representation of Asian experts with expertise in Asian affairs in international organizations.

Nguyen Minh Chau, a K46 student majoring in Environmental Science and Management CTTT was honored to become one of two Vietnamese representatives to win this prestigious scholarship. This scholarship is open to citizens of Japan, Sri Lanka, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, Indonesia, Cambodia, and the Philippines who have graduated from universities, colleges, or higher education institutions. They have leadership capacity demonstrated through study results, extracurricular activities, or work, have an interest in activities for the local and regional communities, and especially need to have good English skills. The international learning environment at Thai Nguyen University of Agriculture and Forestry's Center for Science and Technology (NUCE) has created conditions for Minh Chau to achieve the necessary criteria.

During her time studying at CTTT, Minh Chau had many excellent achievements in study and extra-curricular activities.
