About The Alliance française
Created in 1883 in Paris, the Alliance française, a partner of the MEAE ( Ministère de l’Europe et des Affaires étrangères), is today the world’s leading cultural network, with more than 800 establishments in 137 countries on five continents. Each year, more than 500,000 people of all ages come to learn the French language in the Alliances françaises, and more than 6 million people participate in their cultural activities. The network is coordinated by the Fondation Alliance française.
The Alliances françaises have in common the pursuit of three essential missions:
- to offer French courses, in France and in the world, to all publics;
- to make French and Francophone cultures better known;
- to promote cultural diversity.
