Course Overview\n \n This course explores how we tell real stories through photography\, using both analogue (film) and digital techniques. In real life\, documentary photography is present in fields such as journalism\, social media\, activism and cultural projects — knowing how to use images consciously helps us communicate better\, question what we see and give voice to different perspectives. This subject is relevant because photography is not just a technique — it is also a way of thinking critically. Academically\, it helps develop visual analysis and creativity. Professionally\, it opens doors in fields such as communication\, media and the arts. Socially\, it allows us to better understand other realities and tell stories with impact and responsibility. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 3. Learning Journey\n \n Online preparatory phase (October–November 2026) — Students are introduced to the core concepts of the course\, including the natural heritage of the River Tagus.

In-person mobility week (9–13 November\, Santarém) — Focus on practical\, hands-on learning.
