RECIPROCAL CULTURAL EXCHANGES FOR YOUTH BETWEEN THE AGES OF 12-17
LIVE, LOVE, AND PLAY THE CSFEP WAY!
The Canada Sports Friendship Exchange Programs (CSFEP) exchanges are aimed at promoting friendship, respect and a better understanding and appreciation of each other’s language, culture, and Canadian heritage.
Objectives of the CSFEP:
- To give young Canadians the opportunity to personally experience and learn about the history, geography, industry, institutions, cultures, communities, languages and other facets of Canada, thereby enhancing their knowledge and understanding of Canada;
- To connect young Canadians with one another, creating linkages between youth groups across the country, thereby strengthening the fabric of the Canadian society;
- To help the young Canadians appreciate their uniqueness as Canadians as well as their mutuality with other Canadians, thereby developing a Canadian identity and a sense of belonging to Canada.
The CSFEP also aims at involving youth exchanges with participants from all walks of life, and encourages underrepresented youth groups, such as youth with disabilities and special needs, visible minorities and Aboriginal youths to apply.
