This past summer, Maheep Kainth joined the ranks of FNJA’s passionate and driven multilingual ambassadors!
FNJA stands for the Forum national des jeunes ambassadeurs et ambassadrices (in English, the National Ambassador Youth Forum).
Organized by the non-profit organization French for the Future, it is a 6 day immersive summer program. It brings together 35 bilingual high school students from across Canada to develop leadership and project management skills entirely in French. After the forum, these students spend the following school year acting as ambassadors for the French language and Francophone culture in their local communities.
The National Ambassador Youth Forum is held in a different city every year. This year, ambassadors immersed themselves in an Acadian adventure in Moncton, NB, from August 9th to the 14th: a dynamic week of workshops, activities, and unforgettable experiences centered around the significance of French multilingualism. Travel, accommodation and all activities were free for participants.
