The Canadian Francophonie Scholarship Program (CFSP) aims to train individuals to build the institutional capacities needed for sustainable development in their country. It targets the 37 developing countries that are members of the International Organization of La Francophonie. Project activities include: (1) offering university studies leading to a master’s and doctoral degree and vocational training in Canada, in accordance to the training priorities of beneficiary countries; (2) updating the website and media spaces for visibility and exchange opportunities for scholars; and (3) supporting scholars in their programs, through targeted activities, workshops and webinars. This phase of the Program does not include new recruitment and will allow selected scholars in phase VI (2015-2020) to complete their studies.
