Exchange Program: Discover Canada Cultural Program

The Discover Canada Cultural Program is designed to bring together 25 participants from around the world to explore and showcase Canada’s rich and diverse culture on an international stage. Canada has a long-standing tradition of welcoming immigrants from various backgrounds, and this program reflects that inclusivity.

Participants will have the chance to experience Canadian culture firsthand by traveling to iconic cities and landmarks such as Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Hamilton, and Niagara Falls. The program also includes visits to museums, offering deeper insights into Canada’s history and heritage.
