L'Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie (OIF) represents one of the biggest linguistic zones in the world. Its members share more than just a common language; they share the humanist values promoted by the French language. The French language and its humanist values represent the two cornerstones on which the organisation is based.
OIF was created in 1970 with the mission to embody the active solidarity between its 88 member states and governments which together represent over one-third of the United Nation's member states and account for a population of over 1.2 billion people, including +320 million French speakers. French is the 5th most spoken language in the world.
