Governor Ademola Adeleke has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to nurturing the creative economy and its vital role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.
Adeleke declared open the Sustainable Development Goals conference in Iragbiji, Boripe local government area of Osun State, said creativity and innovation are critical to building a sustainable future. Osun State is ready to lead this charge.
According to him, the launch of the Osun State Content Creation Studio, a collaborative effort with private sector members, is one key step forward in achieving the goal.
“This studio will serve as a hub for creators. It will equip them with the tools, resources, and spaces they need to bring their ideas to life. It will empower filmmakers, digital storytellers, fashion designers, musicians, and all other creative minds to tell their stories, amplify their voices, and create solutions for societal challenges”.
The governor emphasised the potential the state is endowed with, such as the Osun Osogbo Grove, Olojo Festival, Sango Ede Festival, and countless others. He described Osun as a natural melting pot for creative talents, where ideas flow freely and innovation thrives.
“To the creators, thinkers, and visionaries in this room today, you are the torchbearers of this future. The stories you tell, the art you create, and the solutions you design will transform Osun and inspire the world”.
He called for collaborative efforts to enhance a thriving creative ecosystem that drives sustainable development and prosperity for all.
