Fortnightly talks in French, October to May.

'Public events including a biennial FBC Lecture with high profile speakers, are advertised in the newsletter and on the website. We also work with other institutions to host a series of smaller Franco-British Partnership events, some of which are open to the public.'

Organize a wide range of events, including ‘a series of lunchtime lectures, usually in English and occasionally in French, followed by refreshments. These are usually held at central London locations. The subjects vary hugely, from historical themes to more contemporary ones. We also offer evening talks which also cover a wide variety of subjects’.

'The Institut français exists to promote French language and culture, but also to encourage cross-cultural exchange. The programmation of talks and films reflects this dual aim, with speakers from both sides of the Channel meeting regularly in discussion, and screenings of films from all corners of the world.'

'The Institut français exists to promote French language and culture in Scotland, by providing French courses and organising events (film screenings, talks, exhibitions, concerts, etc.).'
