_We work wilfully to sustain and cultivate contemporary artistic practice in zones of conflict as we recognize it is an intangible cultural heritage under threat that must be protected.

_We work against cultural isolation, discrimination and repression. In this framework, we advocate for the mobility of artists by way of programs that pursue reciprocal exchanges across national, cultural, political and social barriers.

_We explore forms of immersion, coexistence and communication that contribute to the creation of heterogenous, informed and thoughtful artistic communities, paving the way for the production of alternate forms of knowledge and critical thought.

_We defend and uphold freedom of expression and independent and emancipated artistic practice.

_We strive for social justice and contest cultural policies imposed by coercive or repressive States.

_We favour the development and execution of artistic works as well as their dissemination through diverse and interdisciplinary platforms.

_We seek reciprocity, resonances and fruitful impact in sites of origin and immersion.

_We think and work towards solid and long term collaborations that are shaped through iteration and the sustainability of exchanges over time.
