With its net\u00adwork expand\u00ading inter\u00adna\u00adtion\u00adal\u00adly, and par\u00adtic\u00adu\u00adlar\u00adly in Africa, Zone Franche had the idea of offer\u00ading a forum for dia\u00adlogue and coop\u00ader\u00ada\u00adtion with its mem\u00adbers on the African con\u00adti\u00adnent.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Musi\u00adcal cre\u00adation on the African con\u00adti\u00adnent is flour\u00adish\u00ading. From world-renowned artists to the emerg\u00ading scene, from learned and tra\u00addi\u00adtion\u00adal aes\u00adthet\u00adics to con\u00adtem\u00adpo\u00adrary music, artis\u00adtic vital\u00adi\u00adty takes many forms. While the major groups and the indus\u00adtry have undoubt\u00aded\u00adly grasped the inter\u00adest (par\u00adtic\u00adu\u00adlar\u00adly eco\u00adnom\u00adic) of this mar\u00adket, as a World Music net\u00adwork, we feel it is impor\u00adtant to ques\u00adtion the process\u00ades involved in the emer\u00adgence of young artists, the struc\u00adtur\u00ading and inde\u00adpen\u00addence of the music sec\u00adtor, etc.\u2026<\/p>\r\n\r\n
How are play\u00aders of all kinds (artists, pro\u00adduc\u00aders, man\u00adagers, labels, trade shows, etc.) struc\u00adtured on the con\u00adti\u00adnent ? Are there net\u00adworks, fed\u00ader\u00ada\u00adtions, unions, plat\u00adforms, etc. that bring pro\u00adfes\u00adsion\u00adals togeth\u00ader to pro\u00admote this struc\u00adtur\u00ading, its inde\u00adpen\u00addence, and coop\u00ader\u00ada\u00adtion between play\u00aders in the same coun\u00adtry or between sev\u00ader\u00adal coun\u00adtries ? If so, how ? If not, why not ? Are cross-cut\u00adting issues (gen\u00adder equal\u00adi\u00adty, ecol\u00ado\u00adgy) a dri\u00adving force behind these coop\u00ader\u00ada\u00adtive ven\u00adtures ?<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Through these exchanges, the aim will be to under\u00adstand the struc\u00adtur\u00ading of rela\u00adtions and coop\u00ader\u00ada\u00adtion between play\u00aders on the con\u00adti\u00adnent, with its strengths and inspir\u00ading expe\u00adri\u00adences to be devel\u00adoped, and its weak\u00adness\u00ades to be strength\u00adened.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
