The SEED program offers scholarships to students from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) member states, which will enable them to engage in short-term research or course-oriented exchanges.
The main reason why this program was created is to reduce poverty in developing nations within ASEAN. SEED scholarships and educational exchanges will contribute to the achievement of all Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) while also fostering stronger connections between Canada and the Indo-Pacific region through personal interactions.
