Education Management

Pathshala is the early school of Photography in the South Asia region, which offers various short-term and long-term educational programs including workshops and presentations in photography, Fim and television throughout the year. Pathshala started in 1998. Since then, the institution has slowly grown to become a fully-fledged photo resource center based in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The name Pathshala comes from the ancient education system that prevailed in South Asia. It brings to mind classes held underneath a large tree; conjuring up learning spaces without walls, in the cool shade of its leaves. The South Asian Media Institute of Photography not only allows students to explore the world of image-making but provides them opportunities to question beyond the confines of the discipline. The conceptual absence of classroom walls enables 1st-year students and 3rd-year students to attend the same classes and work together on collaborative projects together with visiting faculty. This enhances and complements each student's learning experience.
