40 Summary of Outcomes — 6. LACK OF PROFESSIONALIZATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE — The absence of a structural framework allowing for the professionalization of artists and arts professions is a major factor undergirding poor mobility. Its impact can be felt on several levels: a) Artists are unequipped with the skills, knowledge or networks to search for international opportunities and / or to complete funding applications. b) Cultural operators are unequipped with the skills, knowledge or networks to search for international opportunities and/or to complete funding applications and / or to support artists completing funding applications. c) Centres and facilities with the capacity to host and support mobility projects may be lacking. d) There is a lack of funds supporting mobility at the public, private and civil society levels. — 7. LANGUAGE BARRIERS — While Modern Standard Arabic is the official language across North African countries, differences in regional spoken dialects and the presence of different colonial languages pose communication barriers within the region and outside. Respondents named the following issues: a) Language barriers were cited as a source of intimidation, discouraging some artists from pursuing international travel opportunities. b) Low literacy in written French, English and / or Arabic was cited as an impediment to completing funding application forms. c) Language barriers can be especially relevant in disciplines such as music and theatre, where understanding of lyrics or dialogue can impact overall appreciation of a song or play. — QUOTE: « Sometimes the problem is not with mobility funds but also with the freedom of mobility or accessibility to mobility. Egypt is a shrinking political space, and artists working with creative industries and creative expression have this challenge in terms of regime, for example getting permissions to apply for visas and permits to travel to many countries. » Abdelsamee Abdallah Cultural activist and theatre practitioner, Cairo/Amman —
41 Summary of Outcomes For the 2016 edition of Ségou Art in Mali, artists Wadi Mhiri and Houda Gorbel created “Containers for a Continent,” a floating installation composed of calabashes unified by iron wire and set upon the Niger river. In the artists’ words: “The union of the calabashes represents the dream of a unified Africa, without any border, enriched by its civilizations and cultural mixture. It’s about a dream right to the doorstep, randomly launched in the flow of the river as an invocation of the sky for a better tomorrow.” Photos courtesy of Wadi Mhiri.
