KOUTOM, Essohanam (2025): Nécessaire contribution des industries culturelles et créatives au développement économique du Togo.

Abstract

This study aims to shed light on the contribution of cultural and creative industries, especially the film and audiovisual sector, to the economic development process in Togo. To achieve this objective, the present research primarily employed a mixed methodological approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods. Additionally, it focused on United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) data related to the creative economy (film, audiovisual, etc.). Our results highlight that cultural and creative industries have the potential to play a significant role in Togo's economic growth, provided they receive adequate support. Therefore, it is imperative to continue and intensify efforts to support and develop cultural and creative industries.
