Traditional games, role-playing games, board games and Francophone video games are an important means of transmitting culture and values, imaginations between generations. By promoting them, we encourage dialogue and knowledge sharing between young people and elders, thus strengthening community and familial ties.

INTERGENERATIONAL TRANSMISSION

STRENGTHENING OF FRANCOPHONE IDENTITY

In a context where French is one of the two official languages of Canada, promoting Francophone ludic heritage contributes to reinforcing Francophone identity and pride. This helps Francophone communities to keep their language and culture alive, even outside Quebec.

Games and playful activities are a universal way to bring people together, regardless of their language or origin. Promoting these games in multilingual and multicultural contexts promotes social inclusion and intercultural dialogue, helping Francophone and non-Francophone communities to come closer.
