Message from HIVOS
In 2007, Hivos, in collaboration with other partners,
organised a conference bringing together about 60
stakeholders of the African Arts and Culture sector.
At this conference the participants reflected on the
features, needs and constraints that characterise the
sector. Where most conferences stop at this stage
of reflection, here not only an overview of needs and
constraints was produced, but also a very concrete
list of potential activities saw the light. Also the
structure in which the activities could be embedded
suddenly emerged: a civil society network of artists,
cultural activists, art NGOs, cultural enterprises etc,
and named Arterial Network.
But still, and again, the importance remained not to
sit back, but to ‘walk the talk’. In 2008 the EU publicised a call that fitted the intentions of Arterial
Network remarkably well. The call, to which Hivos
with its South African partner responded, was an
opportunity to secure basic funding for Arterial
Network. Perhaps even more important however, was
the fact that the preparation of the funding proposal,
forced the emerging Arterial Network to be explicit
on what exactly to become and how to reach its
objectives. And write it down.
Amongst the generally perceived characteristics of
the African Arts and Culture sector, as noted at the
2007 conference, is the lack of data and the limited
awareness of each other’s presence and activities.
With the publication of the Arts and Culture Information Directory, Arterial Network with the indispens-
Message from Mimeta
and Norwegian Ministry
of Foreign Affairs
Mimeta - Centre for Culture and Development focuses on supporting the service providers to the
arts and creative sectors in Africa, Asia and Latin
America, aiming at strengthening structures through
organization, information and advocacy, through
platforms and mobility and through the development
of creative economies.
Mimeta strongly believes in securing and fostering
the moral and material interests of a country’s cultural production and expressions, as these interests
constitute a significant part of every nation’s assets
and may represent a major contribution to development, to human rights and democracy, and to the
eradication of poverty.
Mimeta is working from Norway and Sweden. We
are partnering with successful culture managers in
both project development and management. We also
highly appreciate the close cooperation with other
European culture and development entities, our own
authorities and our owners. Without these interfaces
we would never be able to take part in projects that
make a change, syndicate needed investments and
risks or be in a position to bring part of needed funds
to extensive co-operations – as Arterial Network
truly is. In this case we want to express our gratitude
to the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for helping to make this directory possible.
able support of its secretariat, managed to indeed
address this felt need in a very practical way. We can
only express our greatest appreciation for Arterial
Network so much proving with this directory that it is
indeed possible to walk the talk.

1.6 Human Development Index
Each year since 1990, the United Nations Development Programme has published the Human Development
Index (HDI) which looks beyond Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to serve as a broader measure of well-being.
The HDI provides a composite measure of three dimensions of human development, namely; living a long and
healthy life (measured by life expectancy), being educated (measured by adult literacy and gross enrolment in
education) and having a decent standard of living (measured by purchasing power parity (PPP), income). The
index is not in any sense a comprehensive measure of human development. It does not, for example, include
important indicators such as gender or income inequality nor more difficult to measure concepts like respect
for human rights and political freedom. What it does provide is a broadened prism for viewing human progress
and the complex relationship between income and well-being. The HDI sets a minimum and a maximum for
each dimension, called goalposts, and then shows where each country stands in relation to these goalposts,
expressed as a value between 0 and 1. 0 is the lowest ranking and 1 is the highest ranking.

Mo Ibrahim Index on Governance
The Ibrahim Index of African Governance is a comprehensive ranking of African countries according to governance quality. The Ibrahim Index measures the delivery of public goods and services to citizens by government
and non-state actors. The Ibrahim Index uses indicators across four main pillars: Safety and Rule of Law;
Participation and Human Rights; Sustainable Economic Opportunity and Human Development as proxies for
the quality of the processes and outcomes of governance. In this index the higher the ranking number means
the higher the performance.

1.9 The Worldwide Press Freedom Index
The Worldwide Press Freedom Index is issued in October of every year, measuring the degree of freedom
journalists and media have in more than 160 countries. It is administered by Reporters Without Borders, an international non-governmental organization that aims at defending journalists and media assistants imprisoned
or persecuted for doing their job and exposes the mistreatment and torture of them in many countries. The
higher the index figures the lesser the press freedom.
