On April 18, 2023, the East China Normal University (ECNU) and the Université de Lyon renewed their framework agreement, signed in 2012 and renewed for the first time in 2018, for another 5 years.

This framework cooperation agreement covers education, research, and artistic and cultural activities. The aim of the cooperation is to implement and support exchanges between research professors, researchers and doctoral students, the development of programs, including joint training programs for the whole site, and the organization of scientific events and multi-category projects involving cultural, economic and political figures.

A French delegation led by the New Franco-Chinese Institute (NIFC - Nouvel institut franco-chinois) visited China from April 15 to 23 to reunite with partners after a period of inactivity following the health crisis. The delegation included:
  • Guillaume Arnould, Director-General of the New Franco-Chinese Institute
  • Mireille Bossy, Vice-President for International Relations at the Université de Lyon, Director-General of VetAgro Sup and Vice-President of the New Franco-Chinese Institute
  • As well as representatives from the Région Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and the Métropole de Lyon
This visit also marked the renewal of the framework cooperation agreement between the Université de Lyon and the ECNU.
