Décrivez les principales caractéristiques de la politique/mesure:
!KAURU Contemporary Art Project began in 2012 as a vehicle for educating the public about the role of art in society. It was conceptualised as a platform for cross-border/cross-regional engagement and discourse between South African creatives and their counterparts across the African continent. The Project is focused on dialogue around social and economic cohesion, transformation and access within the creative sectors in South Africa but also across the continent to strengthen engagement and build sustained relationships with creatives on the African continent.
