CIPA was founded in 1965. The main aim of CIPA was to study a language as an oral phenomenon, in order to promote teaching languages and multilingualism.
It’s especially since the 70s that CIPA’s area of activities has widened and diversified. Look, for example, at the organisation of several tens of intensive internships (one for several weeks), in Mons or abroad. These concern the teaching of languages, linguistic organisation, long-distance training, peace-keeping education, linguistic preparation for the international field, the welcoming and guidance of African and Asian researchers as well as the elaboration of teaching tools.

Fourre-Tout Editions aim, at their own level, to lead a reflection on books, regarding their conception and distribution.
Each book is proof of the desire to develop a communication tool and a cultural presence, an efficient megaphone intended to bring architecture into the cultural field.
The terminology ‘Fourre-Tout’ ("holdall") is a reference to the principle of assembling documents ‘posés sur la table’ (on the table), which make up a presentation of book-objects around which cluster various contributions. Fourre-Tout involves itself in different paths which all converge towards one evaluation and creative participation in the cultural field of architecture.

Crossing borders, playing away from ethnocentrism, Genèse Édition is a Franco-Belgian publishing house, created in April 2009.
Its publishing policy consists of:
- Novels whose authors belong to several worlds at once. Their imagination, free from parochial codes, is enriched by a variety of rich and modern experiences, as shown in the wonderful novel "La tentation du pont" (The Bridge Temptation) by Véronique.
- Stories with content which appeals to a wide audience, such as the marvel story by Johan Frédérik Hel Guedj, "Chercheurs d'éternité" (Seekers of Eternity), which tells the story of the construction of the first polar station in Antarctica with zero emissions (a story of technical prowess and breathtaking epic human feat).
- Essays which address current issues without technical jargon such as "Secret Finance" by Paul Washer, an essay in which the author is regarding the impunity enjoyed by global financial speculation.

Founded in 1984 by the Belgian dancer and choreographer Patricia Kuypers, Contredanse has aimed, from its beginning, to support creations of choreography. It wants to offer tools and resources to choreographers and dancers, to allow them to link their work in the studio to an analysis of thoughts regarding movement, the body, the composition, history and their discipline.
Its activities are principally orientated towards information and documentation, in publishing as well as training. Contresdanse is also developing partners by associating itself with projects such as round tables, conferences, workshops of reflection relating to dance…
Its publishing activity is double: on one half, the annual production of a publication (a book, CD or DVD) on a theme linked to dance or the work of an artist; on the other half a quarterly journal of news, specifically news regarding dance, distributed freely.
