The first confinement revealed to us in what loneliness, as a rule, foreign students find themselves. The second confinement is even more tragic, since it occurs at the beginning of the academic year, after only a few weeks of classes in relatively normal conditions, but too short for foreign students to have had the opportunity to forge links. with their French comrades.

To allow them to be welcomed and supported during this particularly trying period, the Collective wished to develop a sponsorship action. A referent and benevolent family is committed to supporting a young man or woman who sometimes comes from far away, by providing him or her with the human support he or she needs to discover French culture and face better conditions for the colossal challenge represented by this extraordinary academic year.
