iMAP endeavours to integrate learning and participatory activities into our performances.

It includes:
- workshops in schools that lead to participation in our concerts.
- workshops and classes in the community

Using classical music and instrumentation, iMAP has to-date developed and delivered projects based on the
principle of participation and inclusion.

Our major partner organisations and institutions include:
