The name Masakh’iSizwe comes from the Nguni languages and means “Let’s Build the Nation”. The programme aims to address skills shortages. It also empowers youth by giving them an opportunity to obtain a tertiary qualification. They do this through full-time studies at Higher Education Institutions in the Western Cape Province.
The Western Cape Government established the Masakh’iSizwe (MiS) Bursary Programme in 2006. The goal was to make cohorts of trained professionals available in engineering and built environmental fields. The MiS Bursary Programme awards external bursaries for studies at Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in the Western Cape Province (WCP). The studies should relate to a degree or diploma in transport, engineering, built environment, or disciplines the Department of Infrastructure deems scarce and critical.
It partnered with higher education institutions (HEI), non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and the relevant professional bodies to develop professionals in engineering and the built environment fields by offering bursaries to study towards a degree or higher diploma
