Project description

Théâtre d’Afrique is an NGO that promotes intercultural exchanges for human development and integration into society. It is also active in research, artistic creation, awareness raising, communication for behavioural change, heritage preservation and training.

This project aims to promote culture in the disadvantaged municipalities of Benin, namely Bonou and Avrankou. By presenting a musical theatre show at 10 cultural centres, 45 primary and secondary schools, and via digital channels, the NGO also aims to educate people about the consumption of cultural works online. In terms of added value, social cohesion is promoted and the right to rest and leisure is ensured for the populations of these isolated regions.
