TriNat: l'intercompréhension dans un échange interculturel Allemagne-France-Italie promu par l'OFAJ. TriNat: Intercomprehension in a Germany-France-Italy Intercultural Exchange Promoted by the OFAJ.

This article does not pretend to be a scientific contribution but to provide a reflective report on an original didactic experience created from a "trinational" programme (now TriNat) proposed by the OFAJ (Office Franco-Allemand de la Jeunesse) and the will to cooperate between five didacticians of French-speaking languages, operating in three different countries, Germany, France, Italy, linked by a friendship based on previous projects. This programme, as we will specify in the first part, gives access to a grant allowing small international groups from three countries, including France, Germany and a country defined as a third party, over a limited period of time to meet in person for a project of intercultural scope freely chosen by the partners. We thought we would engage in what seems to be an available experimental niche for implementing innovative didactic interventions on a small scale without institutional shackles.
