Femmes en création
The Kadam-Kadam Association is active in the artistic and cultural, social and educational fields, and at times also in the health sector. Its mission is to contribute to the promotion of culture as a human right and a factor in the socio-economic development of children in Togo and Africa.
Initiated in response to the absence of women in the arts, the "Femmes en création" project is a platform for training, research, creation and promotion in the dramatic arts for 6 female actors, 3 female visual artists/scenographers and 6 female administrators. Following a diagnosis of the local situation, the project will work to overcome obstacles to the continuity of the careers of women artists, and then work towards their professionalisation.
Inno – Culture
While TIBI is an NGO is committed to training and artistic creations for the benefit of artists with disabilities, it also participates in international cultural events. Education, performing arts and community development are its main areas of intervention.
"Initiation à l'Innovation Culturelle, Linguistique et d'Ecriture chez la jeune fille dans la région Kara" (Initiation to Cultural, Linguistic and Writing Innovation for Young Girls in the Kara Region) aims to safeguard and enhance the endogenous practices of the peoples of Northern Togo through the promotion of young girls. 100 young women under 25 years of age will thus be able to develop their cultural skills (traditional dances, etc.). They will be interested in their mother tongue (its history and values) and will sharpen their critical thinking skills during an essay competition. The resulting document will be broadcast on YouTube, as will the 50 stories told in their mother tongue and translated into French and English.
Agbodrafo Village des Arts
The association LesChangeurs wants to offer access to culture to the population of Agbodrafo, to develop local talents and to revitalise this village through regular and sustainable actions. The themes addressed are education (with, among others, its toy library), the arts (workshops, exhibitions, etc.), the environment (education in waste sorting, bike or dugout rides, etc.) and sustainability (training, conferences and debates, etc.).
The creative residency project (photography, sculpture, painting, writing, film making) will lead to the organisation of an exhibition/tour in the streets of Agbodrafo. This artistic event will enhance the historical and cultural spaces of this fishing village, which is well known for having been an important place for the slave trade at the time of colonisation. Finally, this project has an educational objective through the participation of villagers in workshops and exchanges with local and foreign artists.
Théâtre Chez Vous
In response to the lethargy into which Covid 19 has plunged theatre in Togo and with a view to democratising its production and performance, the Cultural Association Clinik'art is launching the "Théâtre Chez Vous" (TCV) project.
Places where people naturally gather, such as houses, courtyards, schools, etc., or where people live together on a daily basis, are ideal places for theatrical performances, including during the Covid period. In order to revive the taste for theatre and bring it to new audiences, TCV has chosen to invest in these new fields of expression and to produce 5 creations in the 5 main languages of each administrative region of Togo.
ISIS ou la tragédie des corps dispersés
The CTDC's mission is to promote and defend cultural diversity through an organisational ecosystem of national operators and stakeholders in the arts and culture. Within the framework of this mission, the ISIS project resembles an international research laboratory on a new form of theatre that will later be called "Théâtre du souffle".
The objective of ISIS is to gather anthropological material linked to traditions and cults of possession and then to submit it to a scriptwriting process (in the form of tales, puppets, masks, etc.) in order to create an aesthetic of breath that animates the bodies and voices of the actors and pushes them into all the twists and turns of their performance. This research will result in a contemporary theatre show, on the route to a future theatrical aesthetic capable of inspiring the rest of the world.
Les Actrales: Formation, production, création et diffusion
In order to help build an African society that is worthy and proud of its values and culture, Arkadi Cultures proposes to strengthen the capacities of stakeholders in the cultural and creative industries; to work towards the enhancement and safeguarding of African heritage; to organise responsible tourism to encourage socio-cultural and environmental relations...
The "Les Actrales" project trains stage technicians, actors and directors in organic theatre in order to raise the quality of performance art. Organic theatre aims to develop the spectator's sensitivity by moving from physiology to empathy. It is a form of interactive performance that allows for the emergence of speech and reflection around a chosen theme. After training, the shows will be presented to the general public.
