The Embassy of France in Ghana is implementing the French Government Scholarship Programme, "France Excellence" among which are the "Séjours Scientifiques de Haut Niveau (SSHN, High-Level Scientific Stays)". Addressed to academic and research staff wishing to spend some time in a higher education or research institution in France, the SSHN also aim to be a tool to increase the cooperation with French institutions.
The scholarship includes a round-trip air ticket, a monthly allowance, health and repatriation insurance. Accommodation can be booked through Campus France Paris. The rent would be then deducted from the grant.
