Mission

The American-Scandinavian Foundation promotes international understanding through educational and cultural exchange between the United States and the five Nordic countries: Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden.

About

Training and fellowship - Fellowships and grants from the American-Scandinavian Foundation were awarded on a competitive basis to 26 Americans for study or research in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, or Sweden and to 32 Scandinavians in the U.S. and recommended by ASF's cooperating organizations in each of the Nordic countries. The recipients represented a very broad range of fields and universities and were at the graduate, post-graduate, or professional level. In addition, the ASF made 18 public project grants to educational and cultural institutions to bring Scandinavian culture and ideas to venues throughout the U.S. Over the year, these grants supported Nordic projects in various states. The training and internship program helps young Scandinavians and Americans receive practical work experience across the Atlantic.
