Regional Arts and Culture Programme (RACP)
The regional arts and culture programme contributes to strengthening the capacity of art organisations to exchange and share expertise, resources, and artistic contents across the countries of the region. It further supports artists to reach out to new audiences with their art products. It explores through established organisations how artistic expressions that are rooted in the creative work can bring fresh perspectives and contribute to development endeavours.

Contexto |
In most countries of the southern African region, arts and culture takes place within a context of limited financial support, lack of infrastructure and insufficient opportunities for exposure to audiences. At the same time there has been a growth of active civil society organisations that are developing capacities on a range of issues including improvement of art technical skills, art management advocacy on art policies and harnessing the potential of artistic expression. The lack of support makes it difficult for them to network, travel across the region and increase their outreach. Income-generation is extremely vulnerable. The professional arts remain a relatively small sector, however one that plays an important role in wider processes of societal development. |
Objetivos |
Innovative arts and culture activities increase interactions between artists and wider audiences to a meaningful cultural offer that contributes to social, economic and cultural goals in the southern African region. |
Grupos destinarios |
special attention will be given to have activities in under resourced urban and rural areas
