Education and democratization of knowledge key to Inclusive Excellence
Foundation President & CEO Pascale Fournier was accompanied by 2018 Mentor Nathalie Bondil, Director and Chief Curator of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (MMFA) for the Future Forums workshop in Val-d'Or on February 5.
The session took place at the University of Quebec in Abitibi-Témiscamingue’s Pavillon des Premiers-Peuples.
Discussions on Inclusive Excellence and Engaged Leadership were preceded by a presentation by Nathalie Bondil and Thibault Zimmer, Project Manager at the MMFA on their innovative project called ÉducArt. It allows high school students from across Quebec to use an online educational resource that helps draw links between their classroom curriculum and art works from the Museum. The online tool is just one of the ways in which the MMFA works to make its collections accessible to as many people as possible.
