Hello to all lovers of the French language and Francophone culture! Today we're here to celebrate a very special day: the Journée de la Francophonie! 🇫🇷
What is the Journée de la Francophonie ?
Journée de la Francophonie is a worldwide event celebrated every year on March 20. But why this date? It was chosen in reference to March 20, 1970, the day of the creation of the Agence de coopération culturelle et technique (ACCT), forerunner of the Organisation internationale de la Francophonie (OIF). It's a day to celebrate the French language in all its forms, and the diversity of Francophone cultures around the world.
A little history
The French language has a rich and fascinating history. It has evolved over the centuries, influenced by different languages and cultures. From the time of the Gauls to the present day, the language has gone through periods of influence and decline, but French has always remained a language of culture, diplomacy and international exchange.
The Francophonie today
Today, French is spoken by over 300 million people worldwide, on every continent. French is the official language, or one of the official languages, of many countries, including France, Canada, Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg and many African countries.
But Francophonie isn't just about language. It's also a community of shared values: cultural diversity, respect for human rights, solidarity. It's a place where peoples and cultures meet, mutually enrich each other, and work together for a better future.
