Ensuring the safety and well-being of students is a cornerstone of France's commitment to providing a world-class educational environment. Since 2016, the French government has invested over €30 million in campus security initiatives. This proactive approach demonstrates a steadfast dedication to creating secure spaces where academic and professional development can thrive without the shadow of safety concerns.

These investments have translated into tangible measures, including:

• Enhanced Security Protocols: Routine bag checks and vigilant monitoring have become standard across campuses.
• Emergency Preparedness: Regular emergency drills equip students, faculty, and staff with the knowledge and readiness to respond to potential threats.
• Infrastructure Improvements: Upgraded facilities and the installation of surveillance systems further strengthen campus safety.

For industry stakeholders, these measures underscore France's commitment to fostering trust among international education providers, students, and their families. Secure campuses not only provide peace of mind but also support an optimal learning and working environment for all involved.

Emergency Preparedness: A Collaborative Effort

In addition to these measures, stakeholders play a vital role in promoting awareness and accessibility to emergency services. It is crucial to ensure that students, faculty, and administrators are informed about France’s emergency contact numbers:

• 112: European Emergency Number
• 15: Emergency Medical Aid Service
• 17: Police
• 18: Fire Brigade

Educational institutions and industry partners are encouraged to integrate this information into orientation sessions, campus guides, and digital resources to reinforce a culture of safety and preparedness.

Building Trust with International Stakeholders
