France to send 'secularism ambassadors' to schools
By EUobserver
French education minister Najat Vallaud-Belkacem will on Thursday unveil plans to create 1,000 "ambassadors of secularism" to be sent to French schools, RTL.fr reports. They are to target children who display worrying behaviour when faced with symbols of French statehood. The measure comes after jihadists murdered Mohammed cartoonists in Paris.
