In March, the French-American Foundation developed a virtual platform to maintain our commitment to transatlantic dialogue while we suspend in-person events due to the COVID-19 crisis.

We created a webinar series to discuss topics of mutual concern for France and the United States that feature guest speakers and subject-matter experts on topics from geopolitics and fake news to book launches and cooking classes. In addition, we began publishing a newsletter throughout the month with global headlines, upcoming digital events, and more.

To prepare for a robust calendar of online events beginning in September, we have temporarily paused our webinar series. In the meantime, please follow our newsletter, LinkedIn, and Twitter for regular updates about the Foundation.
