The Catholic Scholastic Exchange Administration (KAAD) is the scholarship organization of the German Catholic Church for post-graduate understudies and researchers from (developing) nations in Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, as well as Eastern and Southeastern Europe.

KAAD scholarship underpins its scholars with grants and educational projects and offers profound personal and spiritual assistance. This depends on collaboration with partner advisory groups and associations of ex-scholars in those nations and it targets setting up (scientific) organizations and adding to a development, which involves the religious and inter-religious dimensions.
