National Centre for Arts and Culture (NCAC)

The National Centre for Arts and Culture (NCAC) is a semi-autonomous institution established by an Act of Parliament in December 1989 to preserve, promote and develop Gambian arts and culture. The 1989 Act is now superseded by the NCAC Act of 2003.

The 2004 Copyright Act provides for a copyright office under the NCAC. It is charged with:

(a) the registration of intellectual property works such as film, books, music products,
(b) fighting piracy, and
(c) sensitizing the public on copyright issues.
