Micro Participatory Budget 2023
Small projects. Big Impact.
French in Games
This project aims to enable migrant and allophone Lausanne families to play board games with their children, in order, on the one hand, to have a good time as a family and with other families and, on the other hand, to improve their practice of French.
Target audience
Migrant and allophone Lausanne families with children in compulsory education (1-11H).
Your project in detail
Français en Jeu is a Vaud-based association that contributes to the social integration and autonomy in daily life of socially and economically disadvantaged migrants, through French courses and language-related activities. 43% of Lausanne's population is made up of foreigners, a significant proportion of whom have little or no command of French, which makes their integration even more difficult. For the parents of school-going children, being able to talk to them in the language of their host country, to gain access to their reality, to support them, and to exchange ideas with other families is essential, yet often difficult. Offering a few Wednesday afternoons of board games, mainly for non-French-speaking families and a few French-speaking families, supervised by Français en jeu trainers, will encourage these encounters, these exchanges and the practice of French, in a friendly, informal, and playful setting. In short, this project will encourage parent-child, parent-parent, and child-child exchanges. What's more, it will encourage the practice of French.
When will your project unfold?
In 2024, offer, at FeJ Lausanne's premises, 3 family play sessions for 30 participants (migrants and some French speakers), on a Wednesday afternoon (14.00-17.00), accompanied by 3 salaried trainers from Français en Jeu.
Amount requested
3000 CHF
