Presentation of our international action
The international dimension intrinsic to La main à la pâte, since Georges Charpak's founding mission in Chicago in 1995, has never ceased to cohabit with its action in France, feeding on the one hand and enriching it in turn with ideas and practices drawn from the crucible of all past, present and future partnerships.
The Foundation's international action has gone through various phases marked by profound changes. Today, it is structured around four main axis:
All of the Foundation's cooperative actions mobilise the networks of La main à la pâte and its relays: coordinators of "Centres pilotes" , educational advisors, inspectors, trainers from the "Maisons pour la science" and INSPEs, teacher-researchers in science didactics, reference teachers from pilot schools, etc. Dozens of field practitioners have thus travelled the world - and continue to do so - in particular to train thousands of local trainers, who in turn have trained tens of thousands of teachers...
La main à la pâte refuses to transfer any model, but rather encourages the appropriation of its ideas and resources by its foreign partners, leaving them the initiative of the necessary adaptations.
For several years, the Foundation has been keen to put its expertise at the service of projects that promote synergies between French actors in educational cooperation.
It has thus recently worked hand in hand with :
Other collaborations are also underway, for example with the Agence universitaire de la francophonie (AUF) in the framework of the APPRENDRE programme, for which the Foundation's expertise can be mobilised, always at the request of local ministries.
