This week, we will focus on the recent initiative to bring the derailing democracy development in the subregion back on track. DEMO-CREATIVE! It may sound different from the conventional democracy as it harnesses creatives’ unique talents and influence – musicians, poets, actors, playwrights and artists, etc – to promote and advocate for democratic principles and good governance practices in West Africa and across the continent.
Through a series of targeted workshops, collaborative campaigns, public forums and concerts, this project seeks to engage the creative community in the promotion of democracy and good governance- civic participation, transparency, and accountability
