The troop Kongo-Ba was of passage in
the Lot in 1996 and was invited to occur to Cajarc.
During the exchanges which followed each other it,
rose the project of an intervention in school
environment.
Two members of this troop came so back
from the Burkina Faso to realize this project which
meanwhile had been growing. The intervention
concerned then 8 schools distributed on the Lot and
Aveyron.
Powerfully helped by Europe, Department
of Education, the Regional council, the General
councils, the ADDA and the ADDM 12, and the other
partners, the experience, supervised by all the APE
of the concerned schools, was achieved and
considered positive by all.
Relations of friendship were bound
among Anani and Akouvi Apétogbo and their
hosts.
This ended project, both considered
that it was necessary to give a continuation to
this action. It is here that intervenes the
creation of the association Miadé, the
object of which is to pursue this method of
cultural meeting between Africa and France. A first
facet was the coverage of it of these two
professors which distribute classes today and
organize spectacles in the whole of the
region.
The continuation of this method, beyond
dancing lessons and beyond percussions distributed
to the children and to the adults, was indeed to
create events allowing to give to appreciate all
the wealth of the African cultures.
Where from the birth, in 1999 , of the
1-st African festival to Cajarc.
