The story
Journee Internationale de la Culture Africaine at INJS in INJS/Libreville
The Institut National de la Jeunesse et des Sports in Libreville held its own dedicated ceremony for the International Day of African Culture, with traditional dance groups performing across the institute's esplanade and its director general framing cultural heritage as central to training Gabon's young athletes and educators, distinct from equivalent culture-day events staged elsewhere in the capital.
The esplanade of Libreville's Institut National de la Jeunesse et des Sports became a stage for traditional dance groups on a Saturday in early February, when the institute marked the International Day of African Culture with its own dedicated ceremony rather than folding into the capital's other observances of the same day.
