2025 EXCEPTIONAL
2025 was a milestone year for CFW, marked by record achievements across our key performance indicators. We reached 1,500 beneficiaries, expanded operations to 28 countries, and actively contributed to the global dialogue through participation in 18 panels and conferences.
The year also saw the successful delivery of two major research projects on Cultural and Creative Industries (CCI) for the African Development Bank, alongside the publication of two in-depth mobility case studies from Africa, further strengthening our evidence base and thought leadership on the continent.
2026 WE ARE BACK STRONG
We started the new year with new website, new design more user friendly and more aligned to CFW evolution. Wait for more with an advanced database online tools and much making curated meetings.
New partnerships : We are happy to annonce partnership with the MASA for an amzing new project, our new baby ODlive stage. Stay tuned more to come.
