Since 2018, the NGO Itinérance brings together communities of artisans and changemakers in the Mediterranean.
By the artisanal gesture of know-how, ITINÉRANCE connects people to give (back) an economic & creative power to the craftswomen of the mediterranean basin and contribute to the preservation of its cultural heritage.
True to its name, Itinérance is devoted to mapping transcultural connections within the Mediterranean, transcending geographical boundaries, and promoting shared craftsmanship across national divides.
ITINÉRANCE identifies the textile know-how of invisible or isolated communities of women. Through digital cartography, these communities integrate a network in order to generate opportunities for creative or economic collaborations as well as promoting their cultural heritage.
ITINÉRANCE trains new generations and professionals in the creative and cultural industries in the transmission of intangible heritage. The NGO offers training and workshops to students in fashion and design schools as well as to professionals, based on a horizontal and inclusive co-creation methodology.
ITINÉRANCE raises awareness to all audiences to this other way of doing and to the preservation of Mediterranean intangible heritage through editions. Each edition highlights the co-creation of a new design and therefore a collection of textile pieces. It is documented through several media (podcasts, films and photos). Communities of artisans are thus highlighted during exhibitions in museum institutions.
