PRESS RELEASE

**OTTAWA****, June 2 2021 – **French for the Future (*Le français pour l'avenir*) is happy to announce today that 25 teenagers from all across Canada have been selected to participate in its [2021 National Ambassador Youth Forum](https://www.french-future.org/programs/nayf/) (*Forum national des jeunes ambassadeurs 2021*). The FNJA 2021 is a week of training and entertainment which will take place online August 6 to 12 entirely in French.

During the FNJA 2021, participants will be able to build friendships by taking part in **collaborative project management and leadership workshops.** They will also attend **memorable cultural activities. **Trained and motivated, they will become French for the Future ambassadors in their school and their communities for the following schoolyear.

## Becoming a French for the Future ambassador

FNJA 2021 participants will live a week like no other. Fatima, one of our young ambassadors for 2020 had this to say about her journey: *"My ambassador experience was incredible. At the FNJA, I met lots of super people from all across Canada. Thansk to the Forum, I learned how to be a good leader at school and in my community. It also helped me to understand the importance of bilingualism and the value of francophone cultures. Moreover, I gained language skills and confidence by speaking only in French for seven days. Even though the Forum was virtual, it was memorable."*

As an ambassador, Fatima launched an Instagram profile to help her peers with learning French. Others, like Bryanna and Vivian, founded reading clubs and organised speach contests in their schools. These are a few examples of the projects led by the French for the Future ambassador team, which help to promote French language learning all across Canada.

*"Each year, the *Forum national des jeunes ambassadeurs* is an unforgettable experience for participating students. With this year being our second virtual edition, we have the opportunity to create a pancanadian digital community that brings together kids who are passionate about bilingualism and **partners from the *francophonie*. Our ambassadors will be able to learn and grow in French before leaving the 2021 *FNJA* with newfound friends, as well as sharpened project management and leadership skills," *explains Geneviève Gobeil, Program Coordinator at French for the Future.
