In an effort
to grow the EFP Scholarship Program, Tony Bislimi used a
conference opportunity in Canada to promote the program
there. Invited by the Albanian community of Edmonton,
Alberta, Mr. Bislimi spent several weeks in Alberta,
Canada.
During this
time, he visited leading universities in the area, such
as the University of Alberta, University of Calgary,
University of Lethbridge, etc.
The
foundation plans establish official contacts with a
select list of Canadian universities and offer them the
opportunity to join the EFP Scholarship Program.
Canadian universities, just like the US ones, have a lot
to offer to deserving Kosovar students. The EFP
Scholarship Program is of mutual benefit for host
universities in Canada and for young Kosovars.
Mr.
Bislimi's trip to Canada was partly supported by the
Kosovo Foundation for Open Society (KFOS).
