The association "Art and development" is the initiator of the Festival of endogenous sounds Adjra, of which the first edition was held in 2004 in Benin and following a biennial programme, supported by the Beninese State.

This association works with artists who do music of cultures and traditions (without guitar, piano, etc). Artists who do not yet have a high profile international or sometimes national, benefit from the attention of our association and music that they develop.
THE ASSOCIATION IS LED BY MEN AND VERY AVAILABLE WOMEN. ITS SECRETARIAT IS GODOMEY (COMMUNE OF CALAVI) IN BENIN. CURRENTLY, WE UNDERTAKE TO BUILD A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE AFRICAN PLAN, TO BRING OUR EXPERTISE AT THE CONTINENTAL LEVEL. THIS IS THE BASIS OF THE APPROACH OF THE FIFTH EDITION OF THE ADJRA FESTIVAL, IN WHICH THE ARTISTS OF TOGO, MALI, NIGER, BURKINA FASO AND BENIN PARTICIPATE FROM 13 TO 16 DECEMBER 2012 NEXT TO RESOURCES, DEPARTMENT OF MONO, BENIN
