African JAG Project have launched & started Podcast transmission as one of the methods to deliver the realties in Africa directly to the people around the world.
By registering your favorite program in advance, the “new generation radio”-like Podcast enables you to receive new releases of the program to your PCs automatically. Registration is extremely simple & easy as well.

We will start off by transmitting “Radio JAG,” the radio show on Shibuya-FM hosted by African JAG executive producer Noriko Asano (aired every 3rd Tuesday from 19:00-20:00).
Following the first release that started on May 17, we plan to transmit 1-2 releases every month. Unfortunately, the airing is only in original language (Japanese for “Radio JAG”), but we plan for various “voice contributions” aside from “Radio JAG” in the future, so please keep an eye on it.
For registration & details, please see African JAG Podcast.

After collaborations with various creators from music, skaters & art, JAG Project has now made its collaboration with dancers, a totally new field within the various JAG activities. Hand in hand with the dance unit VEKROTZ consisting of dancers KETZ & VERONICA known for backing various live shows & TV commercials, JAG took part in one of the top domestic dance events, throwing questions & fund raising through “expression.”

The collaboration took place at the dance event “MAIN STREET” held at Kawasaki Club Citta on April 26. Based on their theme “Africa,” VEKROTZ wore African dress and made their performance. Within the same space, African JAG Project exhibited photos & provided information of the realities of Africa, calling out for “1-Coin Donation” with “lives that can be saved by 50yen” as its keyword.

It was the very first activity within the dance scene for JAG, but thanks to VEKROTZ who gave us the enthusiastic collaboration offer, it turned out to be a successful approach into the new field. In addition to the performance on special stage, VEKROTZ also jumped into the audience giving out messages & calling out for donations, which made a lot of the people in the audience to feel closer to African issues & the act of support itself. It made us realize once again how important a person-to-person message delivery could be, and the power that’s being created when streets unite hand in hand.
The total amount of fund we raised at this event is JPY 38,458 + NT$1 (New Taiwan Dollar). This fund will be used for children suffering in severe life environments.

African JAG Project is open to various types of collaborations with creators from various fields. For offers & ideas for possible collaborations, please do not hesitate to contact us at African JAG Project at your convenience.
