Youth For Understanding

Youth For Understanding (YFU) is a non-profit youth exchange association. We offer exchange and learning opportunities to young people from all over the world to spend a summer, a semester or a year with a host family from a different culture. We work with the conviction that international youth exchanges contribute in a concrete way to the promotion of greater tolerance and better understanding between cultures, directly allowing participants to develop their personality, their centers interests and their ability to adapt.
