The Collège des chaires de recherche sur le monde francophone (CCRMF) is an initiative of the Office of the Vice-President, Research and Innovation. Created in 2019, its mission is to renew and breathe life into the Research Chairs in Canadian Francophonie program, that existed from 2004 to 2019. Today, the CCRMF combines 10 chairs and also boasts the first Senghor chair at the University. The CCRMF promotes research initiatives and the dissemination of knowledge about the Francophonie. It also helps implement collaborative projects between researchers and Francophone communities in minority settings and promotes projects with partner universities in Canada and abroad.
The Collège des Chaires de recherche sur le monde francophone
The Collège des chaires sur le monde francophone (CCRMF) brings together 10 chairs whose research program focuses on a wide range of issues in the Francophone world, such as health, law, education, cultural transformations, heritage, immigration and international relations.
Our research chairs
The Chaires de recherche sur le monde francophone (CRMF) program aims to consolidate the position of the University of Ottawa as a leader in research on Francophonie in Ontario, Canada, and around the world. All chairholders look to assist and collaborate with researchers from here and elsewhere, with Francophone communities in minority settings, with partner universities in Canada and abroad, and with organizations that seek to build the Francophonie of today and tomorrow.
Francophone Mobility Chairs
As part of the Chaires de recherche sur le monde francophone initiative, the University of Ottawa has created the Francophone Mobility Chairs program to support international researchers who would like to spend time at the University of Ottawa.
