ONY supports Malagasy cultural and creative industries stakeholders in their development and professionalization through training, mentoring, access to international standard equipment, and networking opportunities. ONY's objective is to support and give visibility to Malagasy creativity, encourage collaborations between artists and creative people from different backgrounds, share skills and know-how between local, regional and international professionals, and eventually foster the emergence of an ecosystem of projects in the film, video game and music sectors. An ecosystem that would accelerate the development of cultural and creative industries in Madagascar and create a regional dynamic in the Indian Ocean, thus promoting economic opportunities, the identification of talents and cultural exchanges. To do so, ONY is developing 3 different programs: 1. ONY BOOSTER: an annual call for projects targeting emerging organizations in the cultural and creative industries (CCI) in Madagascar through a 6 to 12 months support (mentorship program, access to a wide international network of opportunities, access to the ONY House in Antananarivo, and personalized weekly coaching). 2. ONY Academy: through its partners, ONY engages with a wide network of professionals that deliver training and coaching to local artists and young people eager to make their talent grow in the cultural and creative industries. 4. ONY House: ONY has opened a unique hub in Antananarivo dedicated to CCIs. The 400m space will be operated by ONY and will provide local CCI entrepreneurs with a place with affordable but premium work conditions and the opportunity to showcase their artistic work to a wider audience.
The mission of the association Les Oiseaux Migrateurs is to create a collaborative space organised around diasporas, making the link with the African continent. We federate an international network of artists, designers, entrepreneurs, students, researchers, innovators, architects, academics, brands and decision-makers from all over the world - to support and empower international youth. Ideal for learning, experimenting and prototyping sustainable and scalable solutions to the challenges our communities may face. Union de la Jeunesse Internationale is the community center created by Les Oiseaux Migrateurs in 2022, with a multidisciplinary and contemporary program that supports emerging diaspora talent and provides a platform for creative and entrepreneurial development. Breaking away from the "bourgeois hierarchy" of the arts and resolutely turned towards interculturality, the Union de la Jeunesse internationale offers an ambitious program of exhibitions, debates and workshops. The idea is to provide a platform for expression and knowledge-sharing for young people, and above all to create an avant-garde venue capable of taking the "pulse of what's happening in the world today", with an emphasis on diasporic cultures. It aims to encourage and connect creative people, entrepreneurs and thinkers by providing them with tools such as an exhibition hall, a workshop space, a radio station and a library.
