Dancehall king Shatta, Wale has extended his appreciation to the French Embassy in Ghana for its initiative to support young creatives in the arts sector.
Big shout out to the French Embassy in Ghana for this brilliant idea to help young Ghanaians in the creative arts industry with training, funding and mentorship.
This is huge for the industry.
Young people have been pushing for this kind of support
Thank you Mr Ambassador…
— SHATTA WALE (@shattawalegh) November 13, 2023In view of this, the Embassy has launched the ‘Creation Africa Ghana’ initiative to empower entrepreneurs engaged in various creative sectors, including architecture, design, publishing, music, cinema, digital creations, and more, by providing training, funding, and mentorship opportunities
This initiative aligns with a broader shift in French foreign policy, particularly in Africa, which advocates for promoting innovation and entrepreneurship within the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs).
The support from the French Embassy in Ghana signifies a step towards harnessing the immense potential of Ghana’s creative talent, fostering growth, and contributing significantly to the nation’s cultural and economic landscape
