Since 1995, “La semaine de la Francophonie” has provided the opportunity for French-speaking countries around the world to organize special annual events in celebration of the French language, French-speaking countries and their cultures. Around one thousand events happen worldwide, including in Japan, where the French Institutes host special activities.
