An important theme to raise awareness and break taboos

The choice of the theme of youth mental health was particularly relevant, as it is a subject that is still taboo in many African societies. FEMUA therefore wanted to take advantage of its platform to raise public awareness of this important issue and break down prejudices.

Concerts and conferences to raise public awareness

The festival offered a rich and varied program, with concerts, conferences, workshops and film screenings. On the FEMUA stage, internationally renowned artists have performed, such as Gims, Fally Ipupa, Booba, Aya Nakamura and many others.

In addition to the concerts, FEMUA also organized several conferences and workshops on youth mental health. These events allowed participants to learn about the various issues related to mental health, share their experiences and find solutions for themselves or their loved ones.

A successful festival that left its mark

FEMUA 16 was a successful festival that left its mark. Many people came together to attend the concerts and conferences, and awareness messages on the mental health of young people were widely relayed. The festival was also an opportunity to discover new talents and promote the diversity of African urban music.

FEMUA, an unmissable event for African music

FEMUA has become an unmissable event for African music. Each year, the festival attracts thousands of festival-goers from all over the world to discover the richness and diversity of African urban music. FEMUA is also an important platform for promoting peace and unity in Africa.

In conclusion, FEMUA 16 was an exceptional edition which raised awareness of an important subject, promoted African music and brought people together around common values.
