This study examines nine Norwegian Fredskorpset exchange projects in order to assess the degree to which the goals specified have been reached. It finds that, in terms of achievements, there are variations among the projects. While individual learning of participants was strong in all cases, the degree to which institutional benefits were achieved varied. The study identifies well-matched partners with sufficiently strong institutional structures, thorough planning of exchanges, and participants selected in accordance with well-defined needs for professional skills as important factors for successful projects.
