Regards Croisés, It is the meeting of about twenty young people ( 15 - 22 years) with historians, philosophers, sportsman and artists photographers. The main aim of the project is the confrontation of experiences, stories and identities.

To give to the young people, the desire to look for themselves, confide and thus have a better understanding of their surrounding and of their own place in the society.

How at the end of the Second World War these small villages became urban suburbs?

Is there a link between Clichy, Colombes and Montfermeil? And to where they can go back on the history of their cities?

Beyond any prejudices, the young people learn to exchange and to discuss for a mutual enrichment.

SO, Convinced ?

You citizens from here and there, young and less young, men and women, help us to develop this human project, in search of the transmission of the origins and the respect of cultures.

Help us to share with our young people as it is proper, to think better, create and grow together.

“Learn…See and see again…Testify, by moment, by the image, by the paper...

Go to meet the other one... This other one... Never known...

Go in search of his history, his culture, his secrets...

When the Other one becomes one...

When the Other one becomes mirror... because…

Other one goes in search of your history also, your past, present and future...“
