French Presidential Election 2017: Second Round

On May 4, we will be 48 hours away from the official announcement of the next French President. After an intense televised debate between the finalists, France has to make a difficult decision. In this workshop, we will study the positions and policies of both candidates and try to understand, through a series of activities, what divides the French people today. Together, we will gauge around which candidate the French are most likely to rally.

Wine and cheese will be provided.
