It also helps strengthen institutional partnerships between Francophonie member countries, as well as the globalization and the international promotion of Canadian education and training. Lastly, the CFSP helps to build the capacities of institutions in Francophone minority communities (Alberta, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Ontario) by integrating the scholars into French-language training programs in these regions.
