In the Catalan capital, Barcelona, live nearly 50,000 francophones: French, but also Belgians, Canadians or others. There’s a radio for them, Equinoxe.
Pascal BRICE, Consul General of France in Barcelona, highlights the importance of learning French for Spaniards, especially in terms of employment. The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs also provides means to reintroduce the French language in Catalan public schools through French-speaking sections.
