The Finnish National Agency for Education (EDUFI) participates in the initiative as a country partner. The purpose of participating is to contribute to increasing the number of American students who do an exchange or internship in Finland. The aim is to balance student mobility between the countries as it has a considerable emphasis on exchanges from Finland to the United States. In practice, the Finnish National Agency for Education communicates information about the initiative, among other things, but does not award grants for mobility periods.
In addition, the Fulbright Finland Foundation participates as an international partner from Finland.
Norway (SIU), Germany (DAAD), the United Kingdom (British Council), Ireland and Greece are among the European country partners participating in the initiative. A total of more than 600 partners from the academic, public and private sectors in the different countries are involved, either as sponsors or, for example, communicating information to American students about the opportunities and benefits of studying abroad.
