Too often, even today, when they are implementing a project,

decision-makers or groups in position of power do not believe it is

necessary to seek collaboration from the members of a community;

and yet, they are the ones who will have to live with the impacts

of the project. As a result, after a few information sessions, the

community is faced with a done deal, and has to live with decisions

that have been made by others, without having the chance to give

its opinion.

The Little Guidebook on the Extensive Consultation; Creation and

Cultural Transmission by and with the Communities, native and

non-native, aims to help reversing the trend by proposing cultural

projects' models arising from a real consensus-building approach.

It is a ''toolbox'' to ease the convergence of the driving forces of

a community within a common approach, and through a process

that springs from the desire of realizing a cultural project. It provides

support to project officers, workshop leaders, partners or decisionmakers

for the various aspects entailed in making a cultural project.

It offers principles, thoughts, and tools to facilitate the population's

participation to its own cultural development. The approach of this

guide focuses on art creation, design, video, and museography.

Many work methodologies are explained. They enable carriers of

culture to express themselves, and to formulate the message and

the heritage that they want to pass on by themselves.

The principles, thoughts, and tools provided in this guide are based

on experience gained over the last 25 years by La Boîte Rouge

vif. Since 1991, it works in cultural and mediation transmission

through consensus building and creation. Its mission is to develop

innovative individual and community development strategies while

respecting diversity.
