FRMJC Bourgogne Franche-Comté

What FRMJC Bourgogne Franche-Comté does

FRMJC Bourgogne Franche-Comté (legal name: Fédération régionale des MJC Bourgogne Franche-Comté) is a regional federation operating under French association law (loi 1901), headquartered at 22 rue du Tire Pesseau in Dijon. It functions as the tête de réseau for the Maisons des Jeunes et de la Culture (MJC) associations across the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region, coordinating and supporting member organizations that deliver popular-education, youth-engagement, and cultural-mediation activities built on three pillars: la Maison (community space), Jeunes (youth experimentation), and Culture (emancipation through cultural practice). The federation does not operate proprietary technology; it relies on standard digital tools (website, email, social media) for communications and project coordination.

The organization's core service portfolio includes: Passeurs d'images (national image-education device for youth aged 12-25 with limited cultural access), Les Tourneurs de Côte-d'Or (an itinerant cinema circuit), École et Cinéma, Des cinés la vie!, media and information literacy programs (including the Des-Infox tool), Service Civique placements, and Le Grand Dej' (a youth dialogue initiative). In 2024 it supported 15 projects under Passeurs d'images, with continued deployment through 2025 and 2026 across priority urban neighborhoods and revitalization zones spanning 6+ departments. Leadership comprises President Pierre Vian, Directrice Sandrine Carbonel, Coordinator Laura Fonteniaud, and Network/Youth Animator Sara Jourdin.

The business model is a hybrid of public institutional funding — mandates and grants from the Ministry of Culture (via DRAC Bourgogne-Franche-Comté) and the Conseil régional Bourgogne Franche-Comté — and recurring membership fees from affiliated MJC associations. The federation also mobilizes project-based partnerships with L'Archipel des Lucioles, MJC de France, Centre Image, Hexopée, DRAJES, and a coalition of regional popular-education networks (Francas, Ligue de l'enseignement, PEP, CEMEA, Foyers Ruraux, Centres Sociaux, Léo Lagrange, UFCV). End beneficiaries include youth (12-25), families, seniors, member MJC associations, schools, and popular-education professionals; the federation does not charge direct pricing for its coordination services given its public-interest mission.
