Geneviève Picard, the École de langues’ non-credit training coordinator, travelled to Brazil in conjunction with the “Paraná parle français” project, which is aimed at setting up a French program for seven universities in the Paraná region of Brazil. Coordinated by the secretariat of science, technology and higher education (SETI) of Paraná, the program is the result of the collaboration of the UdeM, UQAM and McGill.
