Invitation to contribute to the reflection on research in French in Canada
The External Advisory Group on the Creation and Dissemination of Scientific Information in French, set up by the Government of Canada, will provide advice and recommendations to the Minister responsible for Official Languages, informing the development of a federal strategy for ensuring the long-term viability of the French-language scientific research ecosystem in Canada.
As part of its work, the Advisory Group is seeking to gather testimonies, analyses, and proposals from a wide range of stakeholders involved in the creation and dissemination of scientific knowledge in French.
