What happens when the ground beneath a practice shifts? Across continents and time zones, artists are rethinking where and how work comes into being choosing to trade permanence for movement and certainty for encounter.

What a thrilling ACSAR session at #ISWA2025! 🌍🔥

From fashion to sport, from arts to wellness — the dialogue proved that Africa’s creatives, sports & recreation sector is more than culture, it’s industry. 🚀 An industry that drives jobs, builds value chains, and powers the vision of #Agenda2063.

The energy in the room was unmatched. 🙌 Inspiring speakers, bold ideas, and partners united by a single truth: Africa’s future lies in industrialising passion.

Grateful to everyone who joined this electrifying session. Together, we are unlocking Africa’s talent, shaping futures, and keeping alive the dream of a thriving, creative, and industrial Africa. ✨
