L'Okapi Foundation

In today's rapidly changing world - where mental health problems, polarisation and crises are on the rise, and our understanding of what it means to be human is fragmented and fragile - L'Okapi aims to reveal how music is much more than mere sound. L’Okapi seeks to harness the transformative properties of musical sense-making by creating a 'nomadic space' for performances, educational programmes, community engagement, personal (talent) development and ongoing research to foster a healthier and more connected music industry and society. Hereby elevating music's role as a cultural artefact and EU's third-largest employer within the creative sector to a vital instrument for personal transformation and social resilience.
