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.
