The Directorate of Arts

The Directorate of Arts aims to enhance Namibia's creative industry by developing the skills of its citizens, fostering economic and social growth through the creation, production, and distribution of creative products and services. This initiative seeks to capitalise on creativity and human talent, generating revenue while nurturing national pride and identity.

To achieve these objectives, the Directorate provides arts education and funding for artists, develops and implements arts policies, and conducts research to promote artistic expression. Additionally, it facilitates partnerships among various arts bodies, coordinates projects in line with UNESCO conventions, and serves as an advisory entity for the arts sector, ensuring collaborative efforts within national and international frameworks.
