Museum of West African Art (MOWAA)

Founded in 2020, MOWAA is dedicated to the preservation of heritage, expansion of knowledge and celebration of West African arts and culture.

The Women’s History Museum of Zambia

The Women’s History Museum of Zambia

The Women’s History Museum of Zambia is a feminist and decolonial museum initiative practicing rematriation as way of restoring, documenting, and activating women-led indigenous knowledge systems, material culture, and historical narratives in Zambia. Founded in response to the exclusion of women from dominant archival and museum canons, the museum works across research, exhibitions, digital storytelling, workshops, and public pedagogy to build more equitable and community-grounded cultural infrastructures.
Its work spans oral history, archival activation, textile and material culture research, digital interventions, and collaborative programming with artists, knowledge keepers, researchers, and institutions in Zambia and internationally. Through projects such as digital exhibitions, community learning labs, collection-based interpretation, and women-centred publishing and storytelling, the museum rethinks the archive as a living, usable resource rather than a static repository.
The museum’s broader mission is to contribute to epistemic repair by reconnecting communities to histories and knowledge systems that were disrupted through colonialism, patriarchy, and extractive museum practice. It is committed to shaping new models of museum practice from the African continent that centre memory, care, co-authorship, and public value.

Kokoba

Kokoba

KOKOBA: Meeting Our Griots is a multimodal literary platform operating at the intersection of art, research, archiving, documentation, and education. It provides access to Africa’s literary and intellectual heritage through inclusive, aesthetic, and consciousness-raising experiences in order to negotiate freedom, healing, revelation, remembrance and the reshaping of social imaginaries. KOKOBA harnesses the regenerative qualities of storytelling, books, self-study, and collective study to expand our sense of possibility in service of (inner) world-bending, (inner) world-mending, and (inner) world-making. On the occasion of its fifth anniversary, KOKOBA’s founder and steward, Keren LASME, curated La Bibliothèque des Possibles (The Library of Possibilities), a roving study space and library that reimagines the library as both altar and sanctuary: a bridge between the mundane and the sacred, offering poetic, intimate, and intuitive modes of engaging with knowledge.

Fondation H

Fondation H is a Malagasy contemporary art foundation. It was founded in Antananarivo in 2017 on the initiative of entrepreneur and patron Hassanein Hiridjee, who believed that art and culture have a strong social impact and enable a critical opening to the world. It has been recognized as a public utility since 2018.
Fondation H operates programs dedicated to supporting artists from Africa and its diasporas in their careers, facilitates public access to art, and actively participates in the development and structuring of the art scene in the Indian Ocean.
Fondation H, in its 2200 m² space in downtown Antananarivo, the capital of Madagascar, invites local or international curators to conceive exhibitions anchored in the Malagasy context. The emphasis is on local productions, through residences and creative grants.
