Dion, thank you for pointing out these movies. I managed to see just Virunga and it actually gave me the creeps. It definitely manages to communicate the evryday struggle of those working in national parks. It gave me a lot to think on, especially because the government takes part in the destruction of the local endangered fauna and flora by not taking serious action against poachers.

Those who do nothing are partners of those who destroy.

I also found the Department of Arts and Culture’s most recent strategic plan mentioned in the article so that we have also a practical example:

Yea, what I found really interesting is exactly the example of South Africa: it sets out ways in which the arts, culture and heritage sectors can contribute to the growth and development of its economy.
