La Francophonie

We are thrilled to launch the Francophonie month on March 1st !

Each year in March, lovers of the French language celebrate, across the five continents, the cultural and linguistic richness and diversity of la Francophonie.

La Francophonie  refers to all those who share a common language: French. It is estimated there are 300 million French-speakers worldwide. La Francophonie is an institution, with 88 francophone member countries, dedicated to promoting cultural and linguistic diversity.

La Francophonie is very diverse. Francophones, who share French as either their mother tongue or as a second language, live across the five continents. Each year on 20 March, they all get together and share their passion for la Francophonie. This date refers to the launch of the Agence de coopération culturelle et technique [Agency of Cultural and Technical Cooperation], created on that day in 1970 in Niamey (Niger), which is now the OIF.
