This project aims to run a series of African music production and support through FMB Radio and partners for African children and young people aged 12-25 years old. It is funded by the Youth Music Trailblazer Fund, which is financed with National Lottery funding, which is received through Arts Council England. As a pilot programme, the project will work mainly with children and young people of African descent, especially pupils and students who have either recently arrived in the UK or whose parents face barriers and hindrances to engaging in and participating in music. We will work with schools, community organisations, and groups that work with refugees, asylum seekers, and other migrants from Africa. Using our current work with community conversations and music sourcing and promotion, we have identified core areas in Nottingham City and Derby City where schools and community groups are willing and able to support us in recruiting and engaging such children and young people. The young people in the community have expressed an interest in working with music, such as Afrobeats and traditional African songs, using English and African languages. However, given the financial limitations and the multiple groups we work with, especially those with different languages such as Amharic, Oromo, Somali, Swahili, and various versions of North African Arabic and Pidgin English, French, and Portuguese, we agreed to start both on a funding application and in setting up a few music sessions for these groups. We are thus in the process of developing music sessions with Eritrean, Ethiopian, Gambian, Kenyan, Nigerian, Somali, and Sudanese communities. Mobile studios will also be used to engage with schools and community organisations to recruit and engage young people, and we will form a steering group to advise and guide our work, thereby becoming integral in shaping the type and nature of music production, promotion, and marketing, including performances.
