A framework for the preservation,promotion,protection and development of culture and creative industry.It prioritizes all the specific areas of creative industries and provides interventions for each of the priorities
1. Finances to the culture sector has increased (0.000125% of the national budget), but remains very limited and narrowly
distributed (mainly to cultural leaders, "policy development" national sites and museums)
2. Increased visibility and media reporting is, to some extent, reducing the narrow and negative public perception of cultural heritage
3. CSOs have invested significantly in promoting cultural heritage however interventions are uncoordinated and tend to emphasize
the performing arts
4. State technical support towards heritage development has been limited
5. The Department of Culture and Family Affairs and Department of Museums and Monuments are not harmonized (making it
difficult to measure impact of the sector) and leading to inefficiencies
6. There is no formal heritage education to enhance attitude change, hence a continued limited appreciation of cultural heritage and
its potential to contribute to national and sustainable development
7. Culture is still a low priority in the national vision and national development programming and financing for heritage development
across almost all priority areas with the exception of museums and cultural leaders
8. Increased demand for service delivery among the stakeholders
9. increased number of festivals & cultural exchanges
10. strengthened structures,
11. enhanced monitoring & support supervision
