Since 2022, the Documentary Network has been looking for ways to integrate independent documentaries into primary and secondary school curricula, as these films are an essential cultural resource for achieving schools' educational objectives. In collaboration with educators and teaching experts, the Documentary Network has developed tools adapted to the Ministry of Education's requirements, in order to highlight the cultural and pedagogical dimension of the films. The Observatoire will be presenting its tools and action plan at the forum.
