Of Portuguese descent, Vasco Martins fled the Salazar regime in the 1970s and settled in France. After some university studies, he worked as a language instructor, and in particular at Renault Billancourt, when, under pressure from the union, the company’s management created a French language initiation service. This service targeted the growing number of specialized workers of foreign origin who sponsored the manufacture of automobiles. During the conference, Vasco Martins will talk about this important mission that has allowed foreign employees to gain mastery of the language, with the hope of finding a real job and eventually integrating into French society.
