The AACC (African Audio-Visual & Cinema Commission) statue serves multiple purposes, primarily focused on promoting African audiovisual and cinema industries and related activities. It aims to foster research, archive and disseminate research findings, protect national film and audiovisual materials, and facilitate the exchange of information related to African audiovisual and cinematographic works. The AACC also promotes the protection of indigenous knowledge and African oral and written folklore, and advocates for the ratification of the AACC Statute
