We at the Peace Sprit Foundation believe that peace can be achieved through raising understanding between different people and nations; and this cannot be achieved unless we promote more communication and exchanges between people and people, instead of waiting for governments to take measures.
So, we are holding a series of short winter courses on Farsi Language to help university students studying Persian language to visit Iran and engage in real life, participate in workshops and improve their command of Farsi through various programs. Other programs include meeting with prominent poets, writers and other Farsi Language students in Iran, visiting museums, ancient houses, cultural centers, newspaper and news agencies, etc. for a weak. Then We will travel to some cities in Iran for 3 days to indulge in Iranian culture and enjoy different dialects of Farsi Language. The students can also have the chance to spend a day experiencing working in a job position selected from among a number of choices.
We invite Farsi Language students from all over Europe to participate in this program which is held on a rolling basis through the winter

Dear Carlotta, unfortunately visa costs and transportation have to be paid by the applicants. As an NGO, we have very limited resources for the moment and we are not able to cover the total costs. But we can assure you that we have done our best to make the program a unique and enjoyable one. Hope to see you in Tehran.
