Embassy of France in Ghana French Government Scholarship Programme 2025

The Embassy of France in Ghana is currently implementing the prestigious French Government Scholarship Programme known as “France Excellence,” which includes a variety of opportunities aimed at strengthening academic and research collaboration between France and Ghana. Among these opportunities is the “Séjours Scientifiques de Haut Niveau” (SSHN), or High-Level Scientific Stays, a programme specifically designed for academic and research staff who wish to spend a period of time conducting research or engaging in scholarly exchange at a higher education or research institution in France. The SSHN programme is not only intended to support the professional development of researchers through exposure to world-class facilities and expertise, but also serves as a strategic tool to enhance bilateral cooperation between Ghanaian and French institutions. Through this initiative, the Embassy of France seeks to foster long-term academic partnerships, promote the sharing of knowledge and innovation, and contribute to the strengthening of scientific networks between the two countries.
