TEACHING DOCUMENTARY CONFERENCE – CARDIFF, SPRING 2014
Now that the dates have been finalised for the CILECT Congress in Buenos Aires for September 2013, we can now start planning the GEECT-supported conference on Teaching Documentary.
After much discussion about available finance and possible locations, it has been decided that this will take place in the Welsh capital Cardiff some time in the first two weeks of April 2014. The actual length and content of the conference has yet to be decided, so we’re keen to get your feedback and suggestions at this early stage – our contact details below – also keep an eye for updates on this blog

Teaching Documentary Symposium II 
I think a conference for those teaching documentary is a brilliant idea. Personally I’d favour something that ran over a weekend – even if it was just a section of the conference. Some of my students came with me to the ‘Good Pitch’ in London in June and were really inspired.
Hi Sharon, good to hear from you. The dates have not yet been finalised, but it’s looking increasingly likely to be the end of the second week of April 2014. We’re going to update this blog soon, so keep an eye on it for the latest. Hope to see you there!
