The Franco-British Student Alliance (FBSA), or Alliance Etudiante Franco-Britannique (AEFB) in French, is a forum and think-tank dedicated to students from France and Britain. It addresses both the future of Franco-British relations and promotes the global competitiveness of the academic sectors of both countries. The Alliance was founded in 2004 during the centenary of the Entente Cordiale, and unites the students and young alumni of seven leading universities from both countries: the London School of Economics (LSE), the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge, The Institut d'Études Politiques de Paris (Sciences Po) (the French counterpart of the London School of Economics), HEC Paris (the top European business school according to the Financial Times, as of 2005,2006,2007,2008), the Ecole Polytechnique (France's top engineering school), and the École supérieure des sciences économiques et commerciales (ESSEC, another top French business school) . It functions under the joint patronage of HM The Queen and the President of the French Republic, and under the joint Honorary Presidency of Lord Salisbury and le Marquis de Breteuil. ==Goals and ambitions== The Alliance aims to strengthen and deepen the Entente Cordiale among the leaders of tomorrow. It encourages student engagement on challenging global issues and wishes to become a think-tank by organising annual events with leading executives and academics. Recent topics included : ''"Can Paris challenge the supremacy of London as major financial centre in Europe and in the world?"'' as well as “''French Protectionism versus British Liberalism''”. It promotes networking among alumni and students from our seven partner schools. It ultimately wants to bring universities, students, and leaders closer, by fostering reciprocal awareness and encouraging cooperation for a common future. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Franco-British Student Alliance」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
