Passing on the Langues O' spirit: bequests, life insurance, gifts

For over two centuries, Inalco has cultivated a singular passion: understanding the world through the diversity of languages and civilizations. This intellectual demand, founded on curiosity, wonder, openness and respect for languages and civilizations, is the Langues O' spirit.

A recognized foundation for a worry-free handover

Created to amplify and perpetuate the missions of the Inalco, the Fondation Inalco is a partnership foundation entitled to receive bequests, donations and life insurance.
It operates within a rigorous legal and financial framework: its accounts are certified each year by an auditor.

Transmitting to the Inalco Foundation means choosing a lasting gesture, respectful of your wishes and your loved ones, and inscribing your commitmentt in the continuity of the Langues O'' spirit.

Why donate to the Inalco Foundation?

Transmitting to the Inalco Foundation means supporting a worldview based on the understanding of languages and civilizations.

The Langues O' spirit lies on a decentered perspective, the study of sources in their original language, interdisciplinarity, as well as field research and immersion.

In practical terms, your generosity makes it possible, for example, to:

  • fund immersion scholarships for students ;
  • support research, through the creation or development of chairs ;
  • modernize teaching tools, particularly digital ones ;
  • value and perpetuate Inalco's heritage.

Through this gesture, you become a "passeur de relais" and contribute to living the Langues O' spirit for the long term.
