On Saturday, June 8, six students from the Université de Bourgogne (University of Burgundy) in France and eleven students from Kyoto University of Foreign Studies (KUFS)—both of which are signatories to a student exchange agreement—participated in an online exchange event. KUFS participants were volunteer third- and fourth-year students from the Department of French Studies, Faculty of Foreign Studies, and the event was planned, implemented and moderated by Assistant Professor Misato Morita of the same department.

Participating students divided into small groups and gave prepared presentations in their respective languages of study on "recommended places". They also discussed their favorite foods, details about their daily lives, and the ways in which they enjoy spending their weekends.

Moving forward, KUFS will continue hosting such events so that Department of French Studies students can experience the joy and satisfaction of using language skills acquired in the classroom to connect with the wider world.
