Resources
This section of the site contains a variety of resources, many of which (press reports, video sound-tracks, admin documents, Annual Reports...) are in French. However, there are some presentation documents (brochures, articles) about AVN in English, and, of course, the photos and slide-shows in the image galleries are accessible to non-French speakers.
Feel free to dowload any of this material should you so wish.
