Cultural and Creative Industries – 2022 Activity Report

The United Nations 2030 Agenda recognizes culture as a transversal theme and tool of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Improved access to culture and greater participation in cultural life indeed promote social cohesion and integration, especially for young people.

AFD has been supporting the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCI) since 2018. In 2022, AFD committed 36.1 million euros in grants to the development of the CCI sector. The funded projects will support cultural entrepreneurship, develop cultural infrastructure and facilities, support vocational training in culture-related activities and help structure cultural policies.
