Contexte

Mozambique's cultural sector offers great potential for youth empowerment, job creation, innovation, economic diversification and growth. Indeed, the diversity of cultural events both in Maputo and in the provinces testifies to the sector's dynamism. There are regular quality music and dance festivals, internationally renowned visual artists, as well as the recent emergence of a number of design, digital communications and fashion companies.
However, this potential remains largely under-exploited due to a lack of qualified human resources, lack of funding and access to markets, weak institutions, disparities between the capital and the provinces, and the sector's international isolation. This project, implemented by Expertise France and financed by the European Union, aims to strengthen the capacities of the cultural sector in order to promote its contribution to the country's social and economic development, in particular through better integration of digital technologies.

Goals

  • Strengthening the cultural sector in Mozambique

    and increase its contribution to the country's social and economic development, with a particular focus on empowering young people and women.

  • Strengthen the technical, scientific, entrepreneurial and digital capacities of players in the cultural sector

    to promote their professionalization and long-term integration into the economic and creative dynamic.

  • Favoriser la structuration, la mise en réseau et l’émergence d’opportunités économiques pour les entrepreneurs des Industries Culturelles et Créatives (ICC)

    Promote structuring, networking and the emergence of economic opportunities for entrepreneurs in the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCI).

  • Support the institutional strengthening of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism

    as well as decentralized public bodies, for more effective, inclusive governance tailored to the challenges of cultural development.
