Young Minds Matter Project

2020 Application coming soon

YMM is an educational challenge with youth leadership at its core. In this project young artists are given a platform to participate or produce an international multidisciplinary festival. The conditions of the simulation controlled by the young creative leaders, focuses on artists developing entrepreneurial and leadership skills.

“This program is unique in its ability to connect artists with entrepreneurs and leaders, giving the artist the opportunity to explore multiple minds sets.”- Edenamiuki Aiguobasinminw, Global Director

It all started

in 2015 at Leeds Beckett University, with 20 local and international artists of different disciplines. In 2016 we worked with 60 artists at EKA Palace in Lisbon (Portugal), we also prototyped the simulation in Tanzania with the support of Youth of United Nations Association. 2017 saw us work with over 100 artists at Anjos 70 (Lisbon, Portugal). And in 2018, we implemented YMM in Belgium (Brussels) with participation from 35 artists, as well as in Lisbon at Anjos 70, again with over 100 participants.
