This installation was made possible thanks to a donation from the Canadian House and the support of the Labrenne Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Placed near a specially arranged flower meadow at the far end of the main lawn, each chair reflects the unique identity of a campus House through an engraved motif inspired by the building\u2019s architecture and a chosen quote from an alumnus, alumna, or prominent personality associated with the House. Each identity is etched in metal, like a silent story. Oriented toward one another, the chairs create a space conducive to encounters, in keeping with the spirit of conviviality and dialogue that has animated the Cit\u00e9 Internationale for a century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:36px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Learn more about this timeless project<\/strong> :<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Exposition &quot;Prendre position&quot; par Michel Goulet\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NI-_9Wyl9s0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n        <div class=\"mec__image-slider\">\n                            <div class=\"mec__image-slider--slide\">\n                   <img src=\"https:\/\/etudiantscanadiens.org\/app\/uploads\/2025\/09\/dsc08023.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"mec__image-slider--slide\">\n                   <img src=\"https:\/\/etudiantscanadiens.org\/app\/uploads\/2025\/09\/dsc08027.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"mec__image-slider--slide\">\n                   <img src=\"https:\/\/etudiantscanadiens.org\/app\/uploads\/2025\/09\/dsc08013.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"mec__image-slider--slide\">\n                   <img src=\"https:\/\/etudiantscanadiens.org\/app\/uploads\/2025\/09\/dsc08077.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"mec__image-slider--slide\">\n                   <img src=\"https:\/\/etudiantscanadiens.org\/app\/uploads\/2025\/09\/dsc08169.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"mec__image-slider--slide\">\n                   <img src=\"https:\/\/etudiantscanadiens.org\/app\/uploads\/2025\/09\/dsc08156.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"mec__image-slider--slide\">\n                   <img src=\"https:\/\/etudiantscanadiens.org\/app\/uploads\/2025\/09\/dsc08167.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"mec__image-slider--slide\">\n                   <img src=\"https:\/\/etudiantscanadiens.org\/app\/uploads\/2025\/09\/dsc08208.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"mec__image-slider--slide\">\n                   <img src=\"https:\/\/etudiantscanadiens.org\/app\/uploads\/2025\/09\/dsc08015.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Wednesday, September 17, 2025, the \u201cPrendre Position\u201d project was inaugurated at the Cit\u00e9 Universitaire in Paris.
