• Culture is the bedrock of our values and our identity. In addition to football, it is one of the sectors that has contributed the most to the promotion and enhancement of Cameroon’s image abroad. Visual artists, musicians, writers, filmmakers, sculptors, playwrights, etc. suffer from the lack of organisation of culture and the lack of recognition of culture as a wealth that must be protected and promoted.
  • The dramatic lack of cultural infrastructure throughout the national territory, the disappearance of what was the embryo of the support structures and culture expression eventually destroyed this sector to the point of leaving no chance to our artists than to emigrate, failing to express themselves locally in foreign structures our artists are lucky to leave the country, failing to express themselves locally in foreign structures.

Our ambition is to work towards the emergence of a Cameroonian cultural identity and to organise and finance teaching, artistic and cultural expression, the appropriation of arts and culture to make it a vector of culture. growth and development

The protection and enhancement of the national heritage, an essential element in the identification of peoples, has been limited in our country to the laws and some ratified international conventions. This situation must be remedied by concrete actions:

  • Restore historical sites (Mbimbia, Buea, Douala, Foumban, etc.)
  • Enhance the local architecture
  • Rebuild an internationally recognised national museum,
  • Create a national library
  • Work towards the emergence of a national cultural identity and make Cameroon a cultural and
    artistic power.

Structuring culture and its national and international influence

  • Adopt the status of the artist
  • Stimulate and organise artistic and cultural trades.
  • Fight with determination against the piracy of artistic works and counterfeiting
  • Establish a National Support Fund for the Creation and Promotion of Arts and Culture (FNSCPAC).
  • Leave to the artists the management of copyright companies.
  • Build a cultural centre in each subdivision (Initiated by local authorities, this centre will be the place of cultural expression of young peoplethrough the practice of music, theatre, local exhibition of their creations.)
  • Build an artistic and cultural complex in each regional capital
  • We will create cultural houses or artistic complexes in each regional capital of the country with:

– a school of music, dance and artistic creation;
– appropriately equipped studios for musical creation;
– theatres for cinematographic projection, theatrical, opera and dance;

Exhibition halls to highlight the creations of our artists;

  • In these artistic complexes, we will train traditional and modern cultural arts and techniques amid the creation of appropriate infrastructures for this purpose.
  • These structures at the regional (or federated) level will be established with the help of the central (or federal) State.

Build a National Academy of Arts and Culture

  • It will be a high place of distinctions of Cameroon which will be endowed with: – a national music school for the training and presentation of the musical performances of the best musicians or orchestras. – philharmonic orchestra that will have to create our own instrumental music from our own sounds.
  • This national arts academy will also have for mission:

– to draw up an exhaustive inventory of the tangible and intangible cultural heritage of the country.
according to international standards.
– to encourage promotion through the exhibition and/or export of cultural products made
