“Before we only had an office space that we used to do the admin and team meetings. And we were nomadic, we would have activities taking places at our partners’. […] Now the work we do is very local. But it wasn’t the case until we got [to Coco]. So we really started to work in a very territorial way since we’ve arrived at Coco Velten. Before that we were nomadic. We went and worked where people wanted to partner with us. But today, since January 2019, also because of the constraints we had to deal with, since we’re a very small team, we decided to ground our work in this territory and with the inhabitants of these neighbourhoods.”

“When we applied to Coco, we thought: "That’s an opportunity to open our projects to the audience of inhabitants here." And also, of course, since we got there, there’s so much to do… We still go in other areas, in high schools, lycées, across the departments, we also work with travellers communities, we also work with bookshops. But yes, we now have an activity that’s in the immediate area, especially with families, and that’s really in the Belsunce neighbourhood. ”

“We organise workshops here. We’d have a room [at Coco] just for us we’d be really happy. But it’s not possible because there’s too many requests. And Coco Velten, the Yes We Camp team is very active on programming. They do a lot, and so that depends on available space, but we always try to do it here first. ”

“Our office is not for hosting members of the public. There’s no space. It’s just an office. But otherwise we use the Halle, to host an audience, or outdoor, or in the Cantine — but the acoustic is awful, so it’s really difficult to organise events there. And the Espace Annexe. And here it’s an office we’ve transformed to make a sound installation. ”
