In a press conference animated at the seat of the Saharawi TV, the Saharawi Minister Mrs. Hamdi underlined that "the Moroccan regime failed to alienate the identity and Saharawi heritage".
"We believe in culture as a way that can lead to the liberation and we are attached to the ties between the generations", she said, stressing that "we work for a consensus in favour of culture of liberation and human emancipation."
The Saharawi minister recalled the Moroccan "hysteria" that took the Moroccan regime, and which was embodied by the organisation of many festivals in the occupied territories. She estimated that the regime of occupation "will bitterly harvest in the near future the result of what it is trying to impose the occupied territories."

The Saharawi official indicated that 2.630 Saharawi participants will be animating and acting in the cultural activities that will be organised in more than 110 traditional tents, built specially for the festival to present the deferent aspects of the life of the Saharawi people in the past.
Another 1250 Saharawis will be participating to folkloric parades representing the Saharawi rituals, customs and social events. There will also be representative of the Saharawi government and institutions in addition to more than 200 foreign researcher, artists, writers from many countries, and hundreds foreign visitors coming from Spain.
The Festival will also be an opportunity to open the works of the "1st International Seminar of Culture in Western Sahara", which is, according to Mrs. Hamdi a stage of research that will enable artists and foreign researchers to exchange their experiences and to get introduced to the Saharawi culture through the works of workshops on many cultural subjects such as literature, poetry, cinema, theatre, archaeological patrimony and plastic arts."
