Etudes Sans Frontières International (ESFI) is a network of volunteer organisations that support higher education students in crisis regions.Our chapters in Germany and Canada award scholarships to students in need, contribute to the improvement of the education infrastructure, and raise awareness of the public for the situation in their target areas – currently Afghanistan, Chechnya (Russia), the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Haiti, Sri Lanka and Rwanda.
With our work, we want to support young people in independently contributing to the reconstruction and reconciliation in their home countries. Together with our scholarship holders, we want to make a contribution to the peaceful and sustainable development in countries and regions that suffer from war or its consequences.
