The notion of equity is at the heart of Mandoline Hybride’s orientations and guides many of the management’s decisions. Gender equality, the principles of decolonization of practices and discourses, and the diversification of artistic programming are priorities for Mandoline Hybride. Within its various projects, including FURIES, the presence of indigenous artists, racialized people, members of the queer, trans and/or minority communities is envisaged as a norm, not an exception. These people present their work and address the public in performances, encounters, panels and discussions.
Mandoline Hybride is committed to actively combating the sexism, racism, Islamophobia, transphobia, ableism and classicism that divide us. In this sense, intersectional feminist perspectives guide the company’s choices in all its initiatives: Mandoline Hybride adopts epicene language in its internal and external communications, favoring neutrality and, when necessary, using doublets and abbreviated doublets. Mandoline Hybride’s various artistic programs (Regards Hybride, Salon58, FURIES, L’Hybride – café & librairie) are driven by a firm commitment to highlighting the work of women, trans and non-binary people, as well as minority groups
