Au cœur de l'Organisation internationale de la Francophonie

In Japan, the French language has become a marketing tool. It is used in all sorts of ways, and this can lead to some rather strange results.

Although the French heritage is still present in Vietnam, the use of the language is becoming increasingly rare.

In Cambodia, speaking French can open doors and allow access to the highest spheres of power. Prime Minister Hun Sen dreams of a country where young people return to French, but it is not a foregone conclusion.

French is not an official language in Romania, but many still choose to pursue their university studies in the language of Molière.

In the Flemish region of Belgium, the majority language is Dutch. There are, however, communities where access to French is protected, but some anti-Francophone groups do not accept this reality.
