— A L G E R I A — Visas · Algerian authorities have been known to apply visa restrictions arbitrarily, even to countries with which freedom of movement purportedly applies. · Access to Egypt has been particularly difficult for Algerian cultural actors. Lack of training Educational institutions exist for artistic training, but there are no opportunities for cultural managers to receive training in Algeria. The notion of cultural industries remains embryonic here. – Zafira Ouartsi, founder and director, Artissimo, Algiers* Culture of nepotism and individualism · Several respondents noted that the climate of poor / absent funding, lack of training and isolationism has created a culture of nepotism and individualism. · On the one hand, a select number of groups and individuals who have managed to break into international markets have monopolized all opportunities. There are groups that have toured everywhere, that have used every fund, that have been to every music market. And then there are some that never move. There’s a category that has priority; it’s the ones who match the authorities’ agendas. – Samy Abdelguerfi, booker, cultural policy researcher, Groupe de travail sur la politique culturelle en Algérie, Algiers / Paris* · On the other hand, those who have not yet had access to opportunities have had to compete, creating a climate of individualism. In Algiers, it can get very individualistic. Everyone is trying to break the other person’s career. There are so few of us, and yet we’ve been shooting each other in the feet instead of helping one another. – Samy Abdelguerfi* 54 Country-Specific Information Racism · Racism has been exacerbated in recent years due to the migration crisis. · Algeria has taken a tough stand, adopting a security-based approach, criminalizing migration in 2008 and signing agreements with Niger to deport migrants at the border. · Algeria continues to be an important destination for scholarship holders from Sub-Saharan African countries, but they face discrimination. It’s the lack of knowledge of Sub-Saharan Africa that creates racism toward students. It depends on the cities ; in some, students have an easier time integrating. – Houari Bouchenak, photographer, Collectif 220, Algiers / Tlemcen* — QUOTE: « It’s the lack of knowledge of Sub-Saharan Africa that creates racism toward students. It depends on the cities; in some, students have an easier time integrating. » Houari Bouchenak Photographer, Collectif 220, Tlemcen* — — QUOTE: « Recently we made an anti-racism video. There was an incident in 2017 ; everyone was manipulated. A Sub-Saharan man attacked a woman. Everyone came out to say that migrants should stay in their home countries. I got a group of young people together. I’m the first to mobilize people – I was saying “you’re against Africans, but WE are Africans!”. » Sadek Bouzinou Singer /songwriter, Democratoz, Oran / Dakar* Watch the video for “Atini Yedak” here —
55 Country-Specific Information 4.2 Egypt — QUOTE: « People in Egypt are trying to look North. Perhaps they look to Tunisia and Morocco. They don’t know about African culture. The media give us American movies, European movies. We have connections in Tunisia and Morocco. The language barrier is not a big deal – many families are connected. We know them and they know us as well. » Ahmed Eldeeb Co-founder, Director, Reflection for Arts Training & Development, Alexandria — FAST FACTS Population 94.8 million (World Bank, 2017) Surface area Capital Large cities Languages 2.382 million km² Cairo Alexandria, Giza, Shubra El-Kheima, Port Said, Suez, Luxor Modern Standard Arabic (official) Egyptian Arabic or Masri (vernacular) English; Sa’idi Arabic; Bedouin Arabic; Nubian languages; Berber languages Dialling code +20 Currency Main international airports Rail network Visa requirements for Africans to enter Egypt African countries’ visa requirements for Egyptian nationals Egyptian pound Cairo International Airport Alexandria Borg El Arab Airport Egyptian National Railways (ENR), 5,083 km network Visa on arrival for nationals of South Sudan Visas are required for citizens of all North African countries above the age of 14 Visas required for all other nationalities Visa on arrival: Benin, Burkina Faso, Cabo Verde, Comoros, Djibouti, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mozambique, Rwanda, Senegal, Seychelles
