Photographic workshops and exhibition 

 

Elodie Galatoire, Development Manager of the "Dejà-midi.fr" product at Accor Services France, is a volunteer at Clichés Urbains (Urban Pictures), an association for designing or reappropriating and upgrading the image of the living conditions of inhabitants of an urban space.

 

Clichés Urbains offers photographic workshops every Saturday afternoon, grouping, for three hours, 15 children from the Cité Mathis in the 19th arrondissement in Paris. Those workshops take place in two phases: the children have a ninety-minute course, and then apply pictures what they have learned by going out to photograph their district. At the end of the year their pictures are exhibited and offered to their neighbourhood's inhabitants. That represents a unique opportunity for discovering one's neighbourhood's inhabitants through the eyes of the youngest.

 

Accor corporate Foundation supports project implementation with computers, photo development and printing, and large-format photographs for the exhibition.

 

 

This project is within the scope of "Local Know-How"

 

Support from Accor Corporate Foundation: 2 500 €
