Panel sessions: Educational practices of Doc Alliance film festivals

Educational practices of Doc Alliance film festivals (Presentation in English)

The presentation will show the results of the educational research within the Doc Alliance network. Documentary film festivals associated within the Doc Alliance play an important role in the whole film educational process on the European level. It is common for the festivals to organize educational projects during the year. It is important to mention that the experience gathered by festival organizers associated with the Doc Alliance network during the festivals is used in year-round educational work with diverse target groups.
