The France–Ireland network for Culinary Arts, Hospitality and Tourism (FICAHT) organizes a Forum every year, in France or in Ireland. In 2019, it was held in Paris.

The FICAHT network aims at bringing together French and Irish Higher Education Institutions delivering training in Culinary Arts, Hospitality and Tourism, encouraging student mobility and apprenticeship, developing EU-wide programmes through the Erasmus+ scheme and exchanging good practices.
FICAHT is supported by the Embassy of France in Ireland, the Higher Education Authority and Campus France.

Anna Cruickshank, lecturer at TU Dublin and Isabelle Laissy, FIPDes Project Manager, have presented the FIPDes programme as an Erasmus+ case study and a success story. FIPDes is also a good example of the French-Irish cooperation in the Higher Education.
