Francophone Affairs takes on a pan-faculty role, supporting all activities that take place in French, and ensuring a positive Francophone image, thereby promoting the whole across the country and around the world, for the well-being of French-speaking populations.
In addition to the "Francophonie" strategic axis of the Faculty of Medicine's Strategic Plan, Francophone Affairs contributes to the other axes, notably :
- Education - Expanding the range of innovative educational programs; Promoting interdisciplinary and interprofessional learning.
- Research - Conducting and facilitating research and research dissemination in French, and works to increase research capacity.
- Internationalization and Global Health - Forging fruitful and diversified partnerships; Prioritizing our social responsibility mandate.
To this end, we have established three important partnerships with the Consortium national de formation en santé – University of Ottawa Chapter, Médecins francophones du Canada and Montfort Hospital.
