Facilitating refugees’ access to higher education is one of UNHCR’s priorities in Iran. UNHCR works with the Government and the NGO Farda Development Activist Association (FDA) to implement the DAFI scholarship programme, which supports a number of refugee students in undertaking undergraduate university studies. The scholarship programme covers tuition fees and living expenses.
For more information about the DAFI scholarship programme, including the eligibility criteria, required documentation, and other programme details, please contact Provincial BAFIA, NOM or FDA. You may reach the FDA by phone or email:
