ANKATA NEXT GENERATION is a multidisciplinary three-year training programme established in February 2019. The first cohort, which graduated in December 2020, counted 20 students from Bobo-Dioulasso.

This professional course is aimed at students aged 18 to 25 who want to pursue a career in the performing arts. Our main goal is to give young artists solid theoretical and practical skills that will help them succeed in the arts and culture sector. Moreover, ANKATA NEXT GENERATION programme is dedicated to strengthening students’ intellectual and physical capacities. The broad curriculum enables them to discover different aspects of the artistic profession before focusing on one specific area of interest.
