For the 2024-2025 academic year, IPL had the pleasure of organizing a friendly picnic for the international students from CPE, ECAM LaSalle, ISARA, and ITECH. This event, held under a beautiful sun on September 19, 2024, provided a wonderful opportunity for newcomers to Lyon to meet in a warm and informal setting.
The event brought together around thirty students from all corners of the globe, each contributing a typical dish from their country, making this picnic rich in cultural discoveries. Each student presented their dish: Turkish lentils accompanied by salad and lemon juice, Brazilian brigadeiros, Chinese chicken noodles, Italian pesto pasta, Beninese treats, American brownies, and many more, turning every bite into a genuine journey through different cultures.
The student association ISAR’RIVENT also contributed to the evening’s entertainment, creating a festive atmosphere that lasted late into the night. The evening, filled with music, delighted the students, who fully enjoyed this unique experience of enriching cultural exchanges.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region for its invaluable financial support for the Excellence in Reception project. Thanks to its commitment, we were able to provide an enriching and memorable experience for our international students.
Below are a few snapshots from the evening :
