Working with five strategic implementation partners in Somalia, Chad, Sudan, Nigeria and Niger, the project offered mobility support to musicians to tour locally and regionally. Financial support was also given to music festivals in different countries to programme and provide mobility and exposure to artists whose movement and growth has been significantly limited by ongoing restrictions in their own countries.
