Botswana: Makgabaneng International Creative Arts Festival (MICAF) took place over the weekend. The festival supports the government’s dedication to developing the industry to realize its full potential.

MICAF microscopes the importance of digitization, which is one of the elements of the 4th Industrial Revolution pillars, which Botswana President Dr Mokgweetsi E.K Masisi is pioneering. This places the Creative Industry in a better place to create massive jobs for the youth populace as most of them belong to this sector, and yet most are unemployed.
