Life in My City Art Festival (LIMCAF) commenced in 2007 to encourage artistic creativity and awareness of environmental issues. It provides space through art for young people to make meaningful statements about the lived environment in Nigeria. Life in My City Art Festival is an annual celebration of creativity in the Nigerian art landscape. It is the largest annual gathering of artists and stakeholders of visual arts in Nigeria.

The growing number of participation of young artists across the country in the LIMCAF competition has drawn the interest of more art connoisseurs and aficionados to the Festival. The recent additions to the growing list of special prizes won annually at the festival attest to this. The latest prize is the Thought Pyramid Prize for the Best Entry from Abuja zone (N80,000) kindly sponsored by the biggest art gallery in Abuja, the Thought Pyramid Art Centre.Once again the gallery is supporting LIMCAF by hosting its Abuja zone exhibition.

Les agricultures familiales

Une chance pour la planète

Dernière semaine d’août 2015 / Last week of August 2015

Venue to be confirmed

Les agricultures familiales ont été et sont toujours au cœur des agricultures du monde. Elles représentent plus d'un milliard de d'agriculteurs dont 14 millions au Nigeria. Au Nigeria, l'agriculture représente 21% du PIB et emploie les deux tiers de la population active. 90% de la production alimentaire provient de petites exploitations. Doté à 80 % de terres cultivables, le Nigeria a un potentiel considérable en dépit, à ce jour, d'un déficit de production. Cette table ronde aura pour but de faire un point non seulement sur les initiatives mises en place par les autorités mais aussi des projets et expériences de quelques partenaires étrangers et nationaux et de donner la parole aux acteurs.

By its number and extent of its functions in societies, family farming dominates the world of agriculture. Family farming accounts for more than one billion farmers worldwide, of whom 14 million are in Nigeria. In Nigeria, agriculture represents 21% of GDP and employs two-thirds of the workforce. 90% of food production comes from small farms. With 80% of arable land, Nigeria has a huge potential despite a production deficit. This roundtable will highlight the initiatives implemented by the authorities, the projects and experiences of some foreign and domestic partners, and will give voice to the actors.

The French Embassy in Nigeria through its office of promotion of higher education, Campus France, is welcoming prospective students and assisting them as they consider studying in France.

Campus France orientate students in identifying suitable programmes, scholarship programmes and in complying with visa regulations and other administrative requirements prior to their arrival in France. We regularly organize pre-departure sessions and CV & cover letter workshops to empower students to get the best learning and human experience during their stay in France. Two pre-departure sessions will take place in July & August 2015. Prospective students will know more about first steps and practical information when they arrive in France (residence permit, opening a bank account, housing subsidy, working while studying, etc.). Alumni will attend the event to share their experience about living & studying in France. France is the third destination for international student mobility in the world with about 300.000 foreign students joining French higher education institutions every year. French higher education has evolved over the years to fit in with the evolving higher education world: it now offers more than 1000 degree programs taught in English from Bachelor degree programs to Phd degree Programs. Accounting for more than 20% of its overall budget, education represents the priority of the French government.For more information, please come to the Institut français du Nigeria or contact [email protected]. If you're based in Lagos and the South, please contact [email protected].
