About us

The Egyptian Student Association in Canada and USA (ESANA) is the North American branch of the National Egyptian Student Association (NESA), a registered non-profit organization, that aims at integrating the Egyptian scholarly community across the globe. ESA in Canada and USA is the largest branch of NESA with a student member population currently exceeding 1,500 and over 50 local chapters (units) throughout the Canada and USA.

ESANA has four primary goals:

1- A syndicated goal: to protect and care for the affairs of its members; to objectively analyze and struggle to solve their problems; to represent them in front of all official and non-official levels;
2- A propagatory goal: to expose the true civilized and Islamic character of Egypt; to propagate the national efforts of the country and Arab world for peace in front of the American, Canadian and International societies;
3- A political goal: to express, study and analyze the nation's problems, as well as those of the Arab and international community, and to express ESANA's point of view in the periodic magazine;
4- A scientific goal: to follow-up scientific deficiencies in Egypt and research solutions as much as human and practical resources allow.
