The École française d'Extrême-Orient (EFEO) is ceasing its activity on X (formerly Twitter). This decision is due to the editorial evolution of the platform which, by breaking with the European code of good practice against online disinformation, has become incompatible with the values of a French public institution of higher education and research. The EFEO, like a number of universities and higher education establishments, has therefore decided to no longer have an active account on the X network, a decision put into practice on 20 January 2025.
