ForewordOne of the key challenges identified at the foundingconference of <strong>Arterial</strong> <strong>Network</strong> on Goree Island, Senegalin 2007, was the simple need for information.Many delegates lamented the fact that they did notknow what was happening in other parts of the continentfrom which they were separated by distance orlanguage. Some indicated that they were not awareof what was happening in the arts right next door intheir neighbouring countries. Still others complainedof the absence of information about the arts even intheir own countries.Without information, civil society is disempoweredand its ability to change its circumstances is limited.Without adequate information, creative practitionerscannot realise their potential. Without relevantinformation, time, energy and resources are wastedin the pursuit of collective or individual interests inthe creative sphere.In response to this need, the first project of <strong>Arterial</strong><strong>Network</strong> was to compile and distribute a regularnewsletter to inform its primary constituency -African artists, cultural NGOs, creative enterprises,cultural activists, creative institutions and educators- about matters of relevance to them. <strong>Arterial</strong> <strong>Network</strong>then established the website - www.artsinafrica.com- to provide as comprehensive informationas possible about the arts, culture and heritage ofeach African country.While not having access to information may bedisempowering, having to sift through too muchinformation can be equally debilitating, particularlyin an age of internet-induced information overload.On the other hand, while access to the internet isincreasing rapidly on the African continent, manyremain excluded by the digital divide and by poverty.This directory is a modest response to these conditions.It is not intended as the definitive guide to thearts of the continent, nor as a comprehensive libraryof information about the arts in each country. Rather,its aim is to provide sufficient information aboutstakeholders and key contacts in the creative sectorin each African country to allow the reader, with minimaleffort, to find what he/she is looking for.The directory should be used in tandem with www.artsinafrica.com, home to much more detailedinformation about the arts, culture and heritage inAfrica. As societies transform, organisations comeand go and information changes so that both thedirectory and the website will continue to be worksin-progress.We invite any interested party to sendus information that we can share with others on thecontinent as we collectively pursue our vision of avibrant, dynamic and sustainable African creativecivil society sector engaged in qualitative practice inthe arts in their own right, as well as in a manner thatcontributes to development, to the eradication ofpoverty, to human rights and to democracy in Africa.Finally, this is to thank our core funding partners– Africalia, Doen Foundation, the European Union,HIVOS, Mimeta Foundation and Spier for theirsustained support for <strong>Arterial</strong> <strong>Network</strong>. We wouldespecially like to thank the European Union forsupporting our key vehicles of communication – themonthly newsletter and our websites - and, alongwith the generous support of the Norwegian Ministryof Foreign Affairs, for making this directory possible.<strong>Arterial</strong> <strong>Network</strong> Steering Committee (2009 - 2011)Tade Adekunle (Nigeria), Lassana Diarra (Mali), Khadija El Bennaoui (Morocco), Mulenga Kapwepwe (Zambia),Telesphore Mba Bizo (Cameroon), Joy Mboya (Kenya), Filimone Meigos (Mozambique), Patrick Mudekereza(Democratic Republic of Congo), Sarah Nsigaye (Uganda) and Salma Said (Egypt)page 8<strong>Arterial</strong> <strong>Network</strong> - Information Directory
Message from HIVOSIn 2007, Hivos, in collaboration with other partners,organised a conference bringing together about 60stakeholders of the African Arts and Culture sector.At this conference the participants reflected on thefeatures, needs and constraints that characterise thesector. Where most conferences stop at this stageof reflection, here not only an overview of needs andconstraints was produced, but also a very concretelist of potential activities saw the light. Also thestructure in which the activities could be embeddedsuddenly emerged: a civil society network of artists,cultural activists, art NGOs, cultural enterprises etc,and named <strong>Arterial</strong> <strong>Network</strong>.But still, and again, the importance remained not tosit back, but to ‘walk the talk’. In 2008 the EU publiciseda call that fitted the intentions of <strong>Arterial</strong><strong>Network</strong> remarkably well. The call, to which Hivoswith its South African partner responded, was anopportunity to secure basic funding for <strong>Arterial</strong><strong>Network</strong>. Perhaps even more important however, wasthe fact that the preparation of the funding proposal,forced the emerging <strong>Arterial</strong> <strong>Network</strong> to be expliciton what exactly to become and how to reach itsobjectives. And write it down.Amongst the generally perceived characteristics ofthe African Arts and Culture sector, as noted at the2007 conference, is the lack of data and the limitedawareness of each other’s presence and activities.With the publication of the Arts and Culture InformationDirectory, <strong>Arterial</strong> <strong>Network</strong> with the indispensablesupport of its secretariat, managed to indeedaddress this felt need in a very practical way. We canonly express our greatest appreciation for <strong>Arterial</strong><strong>Network</strong> so much proving with this directory that it isindeed possible to walk the talk.Message from Mimetaand Norwegian Ministryof Foreign AffairsMimeta - Centre for Culture and Development -focuses on supporting the service providers to thearts and creative sectors in Africa, Asia and LatinAmerica, aiming at strengthening structures throughorganization, information and advocacy, throughplatforms and mobility and through the developmentof creative economies.Mimeta strongly believes in securing and fosteringthe moral and material interests of a country’s culturalproduction and expressions, as these interestsconstitute a significant part of every nation’s assetsand may represent a major contribution to development,to human rights and democracy, and to theeradication of poverty.Mimeta is working from Norway and Sweden. Weare partnering with successful culture managers inboth project development and management. We alsohighly appreciate the close cooperation with otherEuropean culture and development entities, our ownauthorities and our owners. Without these interfaceswe would never be able to take part in projects thatmake a change, syndicate needed investments andrisks or be in a position to bring part of needed fundsto extensive co-operations – as <strong>Arterial</strong> <strong>Network</strong>truly is. In this case we want to express our gratitudeto the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for helpingto make this directory possible.Sanne Karrenbeld and Rob WildschutHivospage 9

1.6 Human Development IndexEach year since 1990, the United Nations Development Programme has published the Human DevelopmentIndex (HDI) which looks beyond Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to serve as a broader measure of well-being.The HDI provides a composite measure of three dimensions of human development, namely; living a long andhealthy life (measured by life expectancy), being educated (measured by adult literacy and gross enrolment ineducation) and having a decent standard of living (measured by purchasing power parity (PPP), income). Theindex is not in any sense a comprehensive measure of human development. It does not, for example, includeimportant indicators such as gender or income inequality nor more difficult to measure concepts like respectfor human rights and political freedom. What it does provide is a broadened prism for viewing human progressand the complex relationship between income and well-being. The HDI sets a minimum and a maximum foreach dimension, called goalposts, and then shows where each country stands in relation to these goalposts,expressed as a value between 0 and 1. 0 is the lowest ranking and 1 is the highest ranking.Countries in alphabetical order, African ranking order and world ranking order:Country Index 2010 Rank in Africa Rank in the worldAlgeria 0.677 4 84Angola 0.403 28 146Benin 0.435 19 134Botswana 0.694 6 98Burkina Faso 0.305 42 161Burundi 0.282 47 166Cameroon 0.460 18 131Cape Verde 0.534 12 118Central African Republic 0.315 40 159Chad 0.295 44 163Comoros 0.428 23 140Democratic Republic of Congo 0.239 48 168Djibouti 0.402 29 147Egypt 0.620 7 101Equatorial Guinea 0.538 11 117Eritrea - - -Ethiopia 0.328 38 157Gabon 0.755 5 93Gambia 0.390 33 151Ghana 0.467 17 130Guinea 0.340 37 156Guinea-Bissau 0.289 45 164Ivory Coast 0.397 31 149Kenya 0.470 16 128page 26<strong>Arterial</strong> <strong>Network</strong> - Information Directory
