An agreement signed in Lahore by the French ambassador and Dr. Jonathan S. Addleton, rector of Forman Christian College, establishes a degree program in French, creating a new French program supported by the Alliance Française de Lahore.
The French program is specifically designed for Pakistani women and aims to strengthen their employability and open new professional opportunities both locally and internationally. Organisers expect the course to improve language skills and provide recognised credentials that can enhance career prospects.
Forman Christian College will host the curriculum while the Alliance Française de Lahore provides pedagogical support and cultural resources to ensure quality instruction. The collaboration signals a concerted effort to expand access to higher education and practical language training for women in Lahore and beyond.
The French program is intended to offer sustained learning pathways that link classroom study with professional outcomes, helping participants compete for jobs and further study where French language skills are an asset.
