The first of its kind in Burkina Faso, CERAV / Africa aims to protect and promote the diversity of cultural expressions.

The Regional Center for the Performing Arts in Africa (CERAV / Africa) organized the official launching ceremony of its activities on Monday March 28, 2016.
This launch, which took place on the sidelines of the 18th edition of the National Culture Week, was attended by certain members of the Government, customary, religious, administrative authorities and eminent personalities from the world of culture.

Inaugurated under very regrettable conditions, further delay of Prime Minister Paul KabaThieba, I am afraid that culture is once again the least of the concerns of this government. This neglect of culture pains me a lot.

he opportunity is really good for us to meet again today, here in Bobo-Dioulasso, with the friends and partners of Burkina Faso, for once again, “to add earth to earth” (as one of our “Living Human Treasures”) for the construction of an Africa proud, united and strong of its heritage and its richness of its cultural diversity.
