MUNDU translates to world – and it is, quite simply, what concerns us: Our shared world with all its opportunities and challenges. World citizenship requires global formation. In MUNDU, that is what we are working to promote. MUNDU is Denmark’s only organization with global education as its primary objective. Our primary audience is children and young people in primary, secondary and tertiary schools and their teachers. Our specialty is to provide concrete tools for educators to integrate global perspectives in their teaching. But we also cater to the general public, for example through intercultural activities. MUNDU was established in 1990 under the name Information Center on the third world. In 2014 we changed our name to MUNDU – center for global formation. We are based in Aarhus, but serve schools throughout the country and take part ind a wide network of Danish and European professionals and organizations.

Vision: MUNDU is working to ensure that the global formation is a natural part of the general formation in Denmark.
Mission: MUNDU translates complex global issues into educational projects and intercultural activities that break down prejudices, nuance stereotypes and motivate to take a stance and engage in global issues.
Objectives: MUNDU’s objective is to contribute to the process where global formation becomes a part of the general formation in Denmark. We are doing this by translating complex global issues to pedagogical learning projects and intercultural activities, that combat prejudices, nuance stereotypes and motivate to take a stance and engage in relation to global issues. We understand “global formation” as the personal process in which one gain awareness about one’s global citizenship and the possibilities and challenges the globalized world contains.

General Information
FOCUS est une association qui regroupe des artistes qui travaillent autour de l'image et de ses représentations (cinéma, médias, arts visuels, internet) autour de projets en France et à l'étranger. Nous sommes 6 membres, très souvent bénévoles dans les projets mis en place. Le budget annuel par année tourne autour de 10000€, provenant de fonds publics et privés. Nous travaillons avec différents publics pour les amener à l'expression, à l'expérience artistique, à l'écoute de soi et des autres, au dialogue à travers différents parcours, et autour d'objectifs communs. Nous avons mené une Master Class autour du cinéma documentaire à Istanbul, un atelier en Egypte avec 15 personnes  pour les former au cinéma documentaire (9 courts-métrages réalisés, dont certains ont fait la tournée des festivals internationaux), des ateliers en France avec des femmes en insertion sociale.                                                                                                 
Mission and Objectives

La culture est d’une importance capitale pour le développement, l’éducation, l’ouverture d’esprit de toute société. Elle peut accompagner des actions susceptibles de mobiliser la participation active et imaginative de la population, en coopérant avec la population et les organisations locales. Dès notre plus jeune âge, nous vivons dans un monde saturé par les images et les sons, qui est un langage à part entière. Et comme on apprend à lire et à écrire, il nous semble primordial de décrypter le langage audiovisuel pour imposer la distance nécessaire entre les écrans et nous. Parce qu’il nous paraît, aujourd’hui, tout aussi essentiel d’engager un travail pédagogique et culturel autour de l’image, la philosophie des projets que nous engageons vise à permettre à chacun de développer un sens critique, de penser et de se (ré)approprier le monde, un monde à l’épreuve de l’image.
A l'étranger, il nous semble capital de mener des formationsde qualité, gratuites, pour permettre à tou(te)s d'accéder au monde de la culture. En mettant en place nos projets, nous souhaitons susciter le geste et la réflexion artistique, aiguiser leur envie d'apprendre, de comprendre, et d'interroger le monde dans lequel nous évoluons, de servir de tremplin aux personnes que nous formons, et aussi pour renforcer les échanges interculturels : apprendre à mieux nous connaître pour nous renforcer et créer de ponts entre les cultures. 

Main Projects / Activities

- Master Class autour du cinéma documentaire à Istanbul 
- "Histoire Du Jour" : atelier autour des arts visuels et du média internet en Egypte (Le Caire et Port Saïd)
- Formation au CRRAV autour de l'écriture de dossiers de production
- Atelier de sensibilisation à l'expression artistique par le biais du cinéma, auprès de femmes en insertion 

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

Nous pouvons mettre notre expérience, nos compétences, nos services auprès de tous ceux qui veulent engager un travail dans le domaine des arts visuels, de la simple sensibilisation à la réalisation d'oeuvres audiovisuelles (photographie, film, vidéo, installations, etc.). Nous pouvons former et échanger nos expériences autour des arts comme moyen d'interroger et d'intervenir dans notre environnement (atelier, projection, ciné-club, rencontre, thématique, festival, etc.).
 

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

Nous souhaitons adhérer à ALF Network parce que nous souhaitons allier la culture et les échanges internationaux pour renforcer les liens entre ici et là-bas. Il nous est important de partir, comprendre, apprendre, travailler ensemble autour des arts visuels, puis de revenir pour organiser des projections pour restituer le travail accompli sur place. Ces projections / rencontres permettent souvent d'apporter un autre regard au public français, de mieux comprendre les sociétés, les modes de vie, les cultures des autres pays.
Echanger lors des ateliers et des projections afin d'échanger avec lui sur les intentions, et les démarches philosophique et artistique qui ont animé notre projet. Eveiller la curiosité des publics en leur proposant des temps pour se rassembler, réfléchir et partir à la découverte de l’autre. L’idée est de transmettre des valeurs humaines autour de la solidarité et de l’entraide internationale, de favoriser le dialogue entre les cultures, de stimuler l’envie de s’engager dans des projets, d’apprendre à s’ouvrir aux autres, à d’autres modes de vie et de pensée, afin de dépasser les clichés. Il s’agit de créer des moments de complicité, d’écoute,de dialogue, et de réflexion.
En France et ailleurs, ces occasions permettront un réel temps de regards croisés. Un moment opportun pour rappeller que la culture joue un rôle fondamental dans le développement des territoires.
