On March 18, 2019, at the invitation of prof. dr hab. Robert Kłosowicz, dr Adam Knapik, expert of the Polish Science Contact Agency, took part in a seminar for master and PhD students of the Jagiellonian Center for African Studies in Cracow.
In his speech, Mr. Knapik presented the activities of the PolSCA Office and talked about funding opportunities for researchers under a new EU framework programme called Horizon Europe (2021-2027). In the second part of the meeting, expert of PolSCA put an emphasis on his scientific interests, mainly on Francophone and its development in the past decades of this century. He paid special attention to the projected increase in the number of French language users in Africa and general consequences of this phenomenon for the whole French-speaking community. It should be added that March is a month of French language, which means it is a perfect time to promote Francophone and its cultural diversity through various kind of scientific and cultural events.
