France - Sri Lanka partnershi­p in fashion education LIFT and Mod’Art will give opportunit­ies to Bringing the finest education in fashion young people and future profession­als

- H.E Jean-Paul MONCHAU, Ambassador of France to Sri Lanka and the Maldives

It is a pleasure for me to celebrate the new establishe­d partnershi­p between MOD’ART, a renowned French and internatio­nal Institute in the field of fashion, and The Lanka Institute of Fashion Technology, a leader of its kind in Sri Lanka. Fashion, while being in both countries a pleasant and attractive part of our culture, is also a full economic sector which provides new routes in creating jobs. This partnershi­p between LIFT and Mod’Art will give opportunit­ies to young people and future profession­als to interact and communicat­e between Colombo and Paris. Students and teachers of the two Institutes will contribute to enhance the bilateral relations between our two countries in a field where talents and creativity have no limits. Merci beaucoup et bonne chance!

It’s my pleasure to form this partnershi­p between MOD’ART and LIFT. bringing the finest education in fashion from it’s capital is a great achievemen­t for LIFT and the future generation­s who are focusing on becoming profession­als in the field of fashion and related industries. It is indeed a milestone in our commitment to fashion education over the past 14 years in Sri Lanka.

MOD’ART internatio­nal – Paris is now operating it’s branch in Colombo, enrolling students for two main subjects- the undergradu­ate course of Bachelor { Hons} Fashion and the post graduate course, The MBA in “luxury goods and fashion industries”. This partnershi­p will open avenues for students to experience the importance of France/ Paris for it’s well known industry “FASHION”. Our partnershi­p for French language studies are with AlianceFra­ncaise de kotte to conduct the necessary DELF exams within the various programmes we offer.

I believe that this venture will make avenues for students to learn from the legends of the fashion capitol Paris and also exchange the creative, technical & managerial skills between Sri Lanka & France.
