The value of our activities

AFSAI is an organization that deals with school abroad, international volunteering and responsible tourism. Our challenge was born in 1958, and today, after more than sixty years of experience, we are able to offer a very wide choice of projects abroad. Therefore all our proposals are strictly certified. In addition, we guarantee assistance for the entire duration of the preparations, in order to accompany our participants on their journey of growth and confrontation with other cultures.
