The Stavros Niarchos Foundation has awarded a $525,000 grant to AFS to help high school students from Greece to participate in an exchange program abroad.

An AFS Intercultural Programs survey has revealed the US, UK and Australia are the most sought-after study abroad destinations by Indonesian teens. However almost half of respondents highlighted security issues as a major concern.

The desire to explore other cultures is the main driver for high-school aged students to consider studying abroad, according to new research from AFS Intercultural Programs.
