The artistes\u2019 development support project that is expected to benefit both rural and urban-based artistes by enhancing their capacities. Some artists have however expressed their concerns over the project, saying that similar projects that had been launched before did not succeed and proposed thorough feasibility study before implementation. Hope Azeda, a representative of local Theatre Troop, Mashirika said that since 2014, they received different partners in the industry, but none did succeed.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have been approached more than once and kept waiting for responses to no avail, what is new in this project?,\u201d asked Azeda.<\/p>\n

Artists claim poor skills in the industry, financial constraints and poor access to international market among others.<\/p>\n

In response, the Executive Secretary of Rwanda Academy of Language and Culture (RALC), Dr. James Vuningoma said that they will start from what has been done and identify gaps in the industry so that they will act on the challenges.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe exercise to identify the status of cultural industry has been conducted; we are going to start from there and identify where to increase efforts,\u201d he said.
\nMINISPOC Minister, Julienne Uwacu said that the ministry will do all that is possible to make the project a success.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Ministry will support and monitor implementation process of this project so that it will be successful,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
