Citizens within the twinning
All along the year, the twinning lives through activities initiated by local sport and culture associations, schools at all levels, in a close relationship to their counterparts of Wolfenbüttel district.
These activities and events are subsidized by Cachan city and the CRIJ.
The CRIJ's support is financial and/or logistic.
The CRIJ organizes with the Wolfenbüttel district a yearly exchange of schoolboys and girls aged ~11 during which about 30 Cachan pupils may discover the beautiful old city
of Wolfenbüttel and its surroundings, and welcome 2 months later their german counterparts, allowing them
