We started a collaboration with a French Nonprofit “Chante ta Nature” on an educational project about the Global Citizenship and sustainable Some of our teachers participated and demonstrated how music can impact people’s life in this world. They also mentioned that the musical instrument they played are made out of dry wood not green wood. Cause this earth is what we all have in common so we must protect it in a sustainable way. Our musical creations can be done without destroying the environment.
So we believe that music is the key to the sustainable development in the world
We are Playing for Change

"Chante ta Nature"
Nous menons actuellement ce projet d'Education à la Citoyenneté Mondiale at au Développement Durable à travers la création musicale.

Une vingtaine de jeunes de l'école CERENE-Education de Lille Fives et de l'école de musique de Kirina se joignent pour explorer une vision du monde désirable et propice à l'épanouissement de tous.

Au programme, création d'instruments de musiques à partir de matières naturelles locales, écriture de textes et mise en musique permettant un croisement des regards sur le changement climatique ici et en Afrique.

A l'issue du projet, un enregistrement de l'oeuvre musicale actuellement en co-création.

Projet soutenu par Lianes coopération, porté par Terre et Vents des 5 continents

Cila Rocha, the young Brazilian lady is still with us. We are sharing our cultural backgrounds with each other. We learnt much of the Brazilian culture from her and she learnt a lot of the Malian ones from us.
We are planning to building a cultural bridge between Ecole de Musique de Kirina and Brazil
Music is the key to the connection
Thanks a lot Playing for Change Foundation and all the partners

We can see this with our own eyes here in Kirina. The students who attend regularly Ecole de Musique de Kirina are definitely among the best students at the public school of Kirina.

Music is the Key

🎶 Did you know?

Learning to play an instrument rewires the brain, increasing the size of the corpus callosum (the bridge between the brain’s hemispheres) by up to 25% in children. 🧠✨

This enhanced connectivity improves problem-solving, memory, and emotional regulation, skills that last a lifetime.
