The Cartel Federation has been very active before a well-deserved summer break. A look back at the activities carried out by the Cartel Federation in recent weeks.
Training a new generation of puppeteers
This training, which brought together 10 new generation puppeteers (5 women and 5 men), aimed to introduce them to the world of puppets, strengthen the operational capacities of puppeteers in Burkina Faso and contribute to the country's entertainment economy. This 14-day training was provided in the capital, Ouagadougou.
This training was structured around several modules including:
History of the puppet
Functions of puppetry in Africa
Puppet type/techniques
design, manufacturing and handling
Concept of dramaturgy
Staging
