CAUT Forum on French-speaking universities in pandemic times

From apprehended crisis to critical emergency

Friday, February 26, 2021 at 1:00 to 2:30 p.m. (Eastern Time)

Canada’s French-speaking universities were already on an alarming trajectory before COVID-19 hit. The pandemic has exacerbated the pressures on Francophone university education in a minority context and things have now gone from urgent to critical.

The Forum will examine the existing factors that led to this situation, the impacts of the pandemic on supply and demand for university education in French, and the future prospects of French-speaking universities in Canada in light of today’s volatile political climate and nationwide budget realities.
