This new agreement enhances and strengthens an already existing dialogue between the two institutions and allows for the establishment of a common framework in order to identify tangible cooperation actions and thus contribute to improving the attractiveness of French education and Francophonie abroad.
This partnership is structured around several pillars that will enable both organisations to effectively mobilise their respective resources and expertise so as to support the achievement of the objectives of “CAP 2030”, which aims to double the number of students enrolled in the French education network abroad by 2030.
This agreement will support the AEFE and STOA in the implementation of their respective strategies.
In fact, the AEFE’s activity is built around three strategic objectives: to increase the attractiveness of French education abroad, to strengthen the AEFE’s role in the development of the network, and to enhance its role as a major player in educational cooperation.
Additionally, STOA has adopted a strategic roadmap specific to the education sector within its geographical areas of focus, particularly in Africa. This roadmap serves the objective of participating in the creation and development of a large and high quality education offer, and confirms its position as an impact fund and long-term investor. In order to implement this strategy, STOA reaffirms its intention to invest in French education in Africa, Asia and Latin America.
