Exchange courses for Malian and French students
As part of the Niger-Loire “governance and culture” project, students from Loire Valley universities attended three-month-long courses in the second half of 2008 covering themes or pilot initiatives linked to the project, in an exchange agreement with Malian students from the University of Bamako. The students carried out their work under the supervision of teachers from their home universities and with the support in their host country of study and project leaders assigned to the projects concerned. This work contributed to the preparation of pilot initiatives (component four of the project) and surveys (component one).
