WHAT WE DO

We design and create Participatory Video workshops and events especially for vulnerable groups (women and youth refugees, immigrants or indigenous and impoverished populations). At an individual level participants regain some of their dignity, self-esteem and freedom through this art-therapeutic, meditative video making process that allows them to be heard.
As community development tools, our participatory projects engage and empower vulnerable communities to take collective action, the choice is theirs: share knowledge, raise awareness, advocate for their rights, impact decision makers. With their participation, we also create various cultural events that are open to a wider audience (video-dance performance, poetry night, projection of short videos, music concerts, arts and crafts fair).

We partner with whomever feels concerned with improving our daily lives, to take action for our wider community’s benefit and our environment. We call for joint action the vulnerable empowered communities we have worked with (refugees, women, youth, etc…) and active citizens from the wider society, to volunteer and collaborate, united, for a greater cause. Social inclusion in action!

We organise ad hoc Participatory Video workshops for any community or organization (non profit, public, private) to reach co-designed objectives. We also create inclusive training labs, open to anyone regardless of their origin/background. From storyline, to filming, to post production, we offer tools to filmmaking, focusing on “social content that matters”. Our aim is to develop creative hubs that share common “media languages”.

We create online and offline cross-media platforms that increase audience engagement and social impact, by applying design thinking for social innovation, solidarity and positive change. The audience is encouraged to interact both with the content and other users, creating a unique social changing connection with the vulnerable community. Depending on needs and objectives, the potential of such platforms is immense!

We create raising awareness campaigns on cross-cultural understanding and human rights, by producing audiovisuals (VR, documentaries, spots), media, social innovative and cultural events - festivals. We foster social inclusion, by allowing socially or culturally diverse people to meet and exchange during our live events or through various platforms and artistic expressions.

We contribute in the study, diffusion, conservation and revitalization of cultural heritage and specially of intangible cultural heritage. To reach these aims, we promote the collaboration between institutions, experts, NGOs, bearers, and any other relevant social partner. We provide:
Inventories of intangible cultural heritage
Safeguarding plans and specific studies
Consulting
Diffusion activities/materials
Promotion of sustainable development strategies that include cultural heritage
