We promote positive social change in two ways THROUGH:
|
|
WE BELIEVE MUSIC CAN BE A DRIVER OF POSITIVE SOCIAL CHANGE
- Music triggers emotions that can prompt people to act;
- Learning to play music means acquiring knowledge and skills that can be leveraged in other areas of life;
- Musician is a job, a social status, and a facet of one's identity on which to rely even when everything else is in jeopardy.
WE FOCUS ON THE FOLLOWING AREAS TO REACH OUR GOALS
- Cultural participation, for its capacity to foster social inclusion and skills development;
- Academic research, for there is no better alternative to understand the world and tackle its many urgent problems;
- Education, for we understand life as an opportunity to become a better self by the day. We thus support the continuing education of our staff, seek to learn as much as possible during projects, and share knowledge whenever we are requested to do so;
- Networking, because we believe success always involves more than one individual. Connected people have access to a wider range of resources and better support.
