Carrefour francophone

Welcome to the Carrefour francophone, a community resource and cultural centre. Here, Francophone and Francophile students can socialize in French, promoting the use of the language.

Our mission

Graffiti on the wall of the carrefour francophone

Established in 2011, the Carrefour francophone aims to:

  • be a hub of socio-cultural life for Francophone and Francophile students at Çï¿ûÊÓÆµ
  • promote and develop French culture in Ontario by providing access to a wide range of resources on it and other French-language cultures
  • unite and strengthen Çï¿ûÊÓÆµâ€™s Francophone community, and encourage networking through activities organized with specialists from both the University and the Ottawa region

What can I do at the Carrefour?

Drop in on a daily basis

  • Chat with your friends (in French, of course!).
  • Talk with the Carrefour co-ordinator to learn more about French social and cultural life on campus and in the Ottawa region.
  • Participate in some of the many activities that happen here every week.

Hold your own activity: Rent the space and event equipment

Organize fun, memorable events on campus by renting the Carrefour and its equipment. Your activity should be open to all students and foster a sense of belonging to the Francophone and Francophile community on campus.
