ZapZapInfo is an online media specialized in the promotion of Haitian culture. Our goal is to promote the Haitian heritage in its entirety. ZapZapInfo is a subsidiary of ZoomInProduction.
For many, Haiti is the land of problems. In fact, an American president called it a shithole. However, few foreigners who visit Haiti once do not make it their heartland. They sing this refrain: “Ayiti cheri pi bon peyi pase ou nan pwen”. Indeed, with its natural charms, the natural goodness of its people, the depth and diversity of its culture, and its exciting and turbulent history, Haiti wins their hearts. It is this aspect of Haiti that Zapping Info wants to highlight.
As a tool for culture, ZapZap Info makes the country’s rich cultural and intangible heritage its main focus. It intends to inventory and highlight all of Haiti’s cultural and intangible heritage through training and information.
It will highlight natural and archaeological sites, historical monuments, museums, works of art, and intangible heritage.
It will make wide publicity around cultural events such as: country festivals, jazz festivals, symposiums, balls, exhibitions …..
It reserves an important place for Haitian books, authors and creators in all fields: literature, history, music, painting, sculpture, dance.
It will regularly zoom in on local practices and knowledge (culinary arts, medicinal practices, proverbs and popular wisdom).
Zapping info proposes to put its public in contact with the facts, the practices and the actors. It will be on all the places, the sites where the activities take place. The Zapping Info staff will step aside to leave as much room as possible for the actors. It will give a voice to those who think, create and consume the various fields of culture.
Of course, Zapping Info is committed to highlighting Haitian culture in general, but this does not mean that it will let everything pass. It has an obligation to produce a critical reflection on everything that is done in the various fields of culture in order to improve the field.
Our wish is that this instrument is taken over by the different groups evolving in the cultural field and participates in the radiation of the field.
