In collaboration with Lancaster university, we are pleased to announce three talks by Cyrille Rollet about fascinating aspects of the Olympic Games.

This first talk will focus on the organisation of the Olympic Games in French-speaking countries, as well as the importance of French speakers and the place of the French language in the preparation of the modern Games. It will also be an opportunity to examine the successes and failures of French speakers at the Olympics.
