Qu’est ce que Terre d’Espoir?
• Le terme ‘Terre d’Espoir’ renvoie à l’Afrique comme berceau de l’humanité, donc source de vie. Terre d’espoir car l’Afrique est espoir par essence. C’est un appel à la solidarité en hommage au don sacré de la vie. Lorsque chacun partage, c’est déjà la moitié des problèmes d’une société qui peuvent être résolus.
• ‘Terre d’Espoir’ est un concept apolitique qui promeut le rôle constructif de l’artiste dans la société ;
• Les artistes rallient leurs talents et leurs diversités autour de causes sociales, et sensibilisent le grand public pour faire appel à la solidarité citoyenne dans le souci de contribuer au développement.
Quels sont ses objectifs?
• Contribuer au développement, en faisant valoir la notion de responsabilité citoyenne pour tout un chacun, quelle que soit la position qu’on occupe dans la société.
• Faire passer aux jeunes notamment (l’avenir) des messages positifs, porteurs d’espoir et d’amour pour soi, pour les autres, et constructifs pour le pays par le sens de l’effort et du travail.

Who I'd like to meet:
One Love always all through the Universe for those who are victims of egoism on a daily basis, and still nurture hope for tomorrow through hard work. Unity and peace are the greatest treasures for the world to cherish and strengthen. We are only passengers on the earth and each of us can contribute to curb the tragedy of the needy. LIFE is so precious and short... we need to work hard so we can pass on a positive legacy to the next generations.
By mobilizing artists, 'Land of Hope' promotes solidarity to the needy through sensitization and social projects in Gabon (Africa) which is the headquarters of the NGO. We wish to broaden our network and raise public awareness in collaboration with other NGOs all over the world, committed artists, and any willing and positive individuals.
One Love,
LAND OF HOPE
