French Conversation: The Role of Women as Aviation Pioneers

  • Zoom Video Conference Platform CABA Argentina (map)

French Conversation

In our October session we will be discussing the role of women as aviation pioneers. On the one hand there are the early heroines of aviation, and then there is “Jane come lately” - the first Swiss female fighter pilot who had to await the 21st century to make history. Small wonder, since the country only granted female voting rights in 1971.

Some reading is included here. And here.

Join us for an animated discussion. Both beginners and fully fluent French speakers are welcome; the group will be split accordingly into two “zoom rooms.”

To participate, please email Barbara Grünenfelder-Elliker at uwc.frenchconversation@gmail.com by Friday, October 22nd, 2021 in order to receive the zoom link 24 hours prior to the event.

On vous attend avec plaisir!
