I nostri progetti
Through educational initiatives, events, and mentorship, we work to strengthen the local capacity to leverage arts and culture as an engine for social and economic development. Currently we’re working on projects in Italy, Cameroon, Rwanda, and Ghana.
Project Spotlight: Les petits métiers
Expanding opportunities for youth in Cameroon’s growing fashion industry, providing comprehensive training in tailoring, design, and business management, with a strong emphasis on gender equality. Launched in spring 2024, the program sets itself apart by combining hands-on training with online international learning and job placement opportunities, in addition to building a local business cooperative.
