BOOK CLUBS In French and English
Essences citoyennes – The Living Ideas Book Club (In French)
Reading to understand better, discussing to act better. Essences citoyennes is a book club focused on environmental issues — a space for ongoing civic learning. It features powerful readings on contemporary challenges, enriching discussions with invited experts, and an accessible approach that supports community engagement.
This project is created and led by Coralie Beaumont, a PhD candidate at Université de Sherbrooke. Her interdisciplinary research focuses on biodiversity governance from an information and communication perspective. A former science journalist and communicator, Coralie is passionate about bridging science and public dialogue.

Are you an Anglophone looking to brush up your French, or a Francophone looking to practice your English? Both clubs welcome the participation of those looking to connect with literature and conversation in another language.
