General Information

We are a young organization that is recently entering the country, we are currently 12 associates and we aim to contribute to improving the quality of life through the promotion of the rights and interests of minorities and disadvantaged groups, including people with physical disabilities, mental and psychiatric disorders, people with low incomes, youth, children, women, LGBTIQ+ communities, gypsy communities, older adults, immigrants and refugees.

Our main field of action are concrete projects, and we have great willingness and openness to bet on different modalities of action as the organization gains experience and reliability.

We are a multidisciplinary team with professionals from various areas including: social work, occupational therapy, psychiatry, psychology, neuropsychology, family therapy, speech therapy, biochemical engineering, industrial engineering and economics; we have extensive experience (approximately 8 years in Colombia) in the care, rehabilitation and support to people (and their families) with various psychiatric disorders, cognitive disabilities and syndromes.

We have participated in Erasmus projects and we hope to continue to do so from different roles that allow us greater fields of action and intervention; we have a partnership with the association AEQUALITAS.

Mission and Objectives

Mission: We envision a world where every individual, regardless of status, situation or nationality, has access to equal opportunities, enjoys their fundamental rights and experiences a full and dignified quality of life. We strive to build an inclusive and just society, where minorities and disadvantaged groups find support, understanding and respect. We work toward a future in which diversity is celebrated, equality is the norm and solidarity is the engine that drives progress toward a common well-being for all.

Objective: to contribute to the improvement of the quality of life through the promotion of the rights and interests of minorities and disadvantaged groups, including people with physical, mental disabilities and psychiatric disorders, people with low incomes, youth, children, women, LGBTIQ+ communities, gypsy communities, older adults, immigrants and refugees.

Main Projects / Activities

We are currently developing projects for the promotion and prevention of mental health among young people, the promotion of empathy and the inclusion and civic participation of migrants and people living in sectors with greater vulnerabilities, less access to services and greater social risk.

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

As an association we can be actively involved in joint initiatives with other organizations in the network. This may include organizing events, seminars, and workshops that encourage dialogue between different communities and groups, thus promoting mutual understanding and bridge building.

We may develop awareness campaigns on the importance of intercultural dialogue and diversity. These campaigns could use various media, such as social networks, community events, and mass media, to disseminate positive messages that counteract stereotypes and prejudices.

We have the capacity to develop educational programs that promote inclusion and diversity in schools, communities and workplaces. These programs can include lectures, educational materials and activities that promote mutual understanding and respect for differences.

In addition to actions such as: Dialogue and Collaboration Forums, where representatives of diverse communities and organizations can meet to discuss issues of common interest, share experiences and work together on solutions to the challenges facing society; Facilitating the creation of support networks between different communities and groups, so that they can collaborate on projects and activities that benefit society as a whole. These links can strengthen social cohesion and build trust between different sectors; Contribute to research and data collection on the reality of minorities and disadvantaged groups, sharing this information with the network of associations. This can help to better understand specific challenges and opportunities, as well as to develop more effective strategies; Encourage the practice of active listening at all levels, from individuals to institutions. The ability to listen and understand the perspectives of others is critical to overcoming polarization and building bridges of understanding.

By adopting these strategies, the association can play a crucial role in strengthening the network and contributing to the development of a more inclusive society, where dialogue and collaboration are fundamental tools for addressing today's challenges.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

We see the network as a valuable platform for the exchange of best practices, and believe that by joining this network, we will have the opportunity to share our experiences and learn from the experiences of others, thus strengthening the ties between diverse communities.

Occitanie en scène est l’agence régionale du spectacle vivant en Occitanie. Elle a pour but de contribuer au développement artistique et culturel en Occitanie dans l’objectif d’en faire une région dynamique pour les créateur·rice·s qui y vivent et une terre d’émergence de nouvelles formes artistiques, dans une perspective d’aménagement culturel du territoire et de réduction des inégalités d’accès à la création artistique. Elle a été créée à l'initiative conjointe de la Région Occitanie / Pyrénées-Méditerranée et de la Direction Régionale des Affaires Culturelles Occitanie et reçoit le soutien des Départements de l'Aude, de l'Hérault, de la Lozère et des Pyrénées-Orientales. Certains de ses projets sont également soutenus par l’Union Européenne. Ses domaines d’intervention couvrent l’ensemble du champ des arts vivants : le cirque, la danse, la musique, le théâtre et leurs formes associées et croisées, pour la scène, l’espace public ou la piste. Son aire principale d’activités se situe en région Occitanie, mais l’association développe également des projets interrégionaux, nationaux, européens et internationaux. Occitanie en scène dispose d'une équipe de 16 personnels permanents, à Montpellier et Toulouse. Le budget annuel est de 2 M€, provenant majoritairement de subventions publiques (Etat, Région, Union Européenne) et des contributions des adhérents.

Mission and Objectives

Occitanie en scène a pour but de contribuer au développement artistique et culturel en Occitanie dans l’objectif d’en faire une région dynamique pour les créateur·rice·s qui y vivent et une terre d’émergence de nouvelles formes artistiques, dans une perspective d’aménagement culturel du territoire et de réduction des inégalités d’accès à la création artistique.

Depuis l’automne 2018, l’équipe de l’agence est à la disposition des acteur·rice·s culturel·le·s et territoriaux·ales sur l’ensemble du territoire régional, pour développer et accompagner leurs coopérations en prenant appui sur de nouvelles missions : - Sur le territoire régional, outre des missions d’information et de conseil, Occitanie en scène concentre son accompagnement à la diffusion dans le cadre des réseaux, afin de développer et renforcer les solidarités entre opérateur·rice·s culturel·le·s. Soutien à la mobilité des programmateur·rice·s, organisation de rendez-vous professionnels, repérages et visionnages artistiques sont également au cœur de l’action territoriale de l’agence. - Le centre de gravité d’Occitanie en scène bascule vers l’extérieur de la région, avec des retombées nationales et internationales. La mobilité artistique et professionnelle du spectacle vivant devient ainsi le fer de lance d’Occitanie en scène. En renforçant l’accompagnement des professionnel·le·s à l’échelle nationale, européenne et internationale dans une perspective de structuration et de professionnalisation à l’export, et en accentuant les aides à la diffusion des œuvres hors de la région, l’association devient le principal interlocuteur des professionnel·le·s pour toutes les questions relatives à la mobilité. Occitanie en scène propose notamment des bourses à la mobilité professionnelles, une coopérative de projets européens et internationaux, des aides financières à la mobilité artistique. - Enfin, s’appuyant sur sa forte expérience dans le domaine de la coopération européenne et internationale, Occitanie en scène s’affirme comme point d’appui au développement des projets culturels européens et internationaux. L’agence accompagne l’émergence et dynamisera les projets culturels de coopération avec pour objectif de développer la présence des professionnel·le·s de la culture dans les programmes européens. Occitanie en scène est enfin accréditée au titre du programme Erasmus+.
