A promotional press conference for this year’s Francophonie Month in Serbia was held at the National Library of Serbia in the presence of ambassadors and members of the International Organisation of La Francophonie, as well as political, cultural and public figures from Serbia.
The International Organisation of La Francophonie, in which Serbia has observer status, brings together 80 governments and respective countries with close to a billion of people who are committed to defending cultural and linguistic diversity, as well as human and social rights.
This year’s Francophonie Month was devoted to music, film, concerts, exhibitions and debates, in addition to entertaining traditional competitions dedicated to the French language. This year’s Francophonie programmes were held in Belgrade, Novi Sad, Niš, Kladovo, Novi Pazar, Kraljevo and Kragujevac.
