The African Cultural Centre was inaugurated on the 27th October 1986 and was then known as the Nelson Mandela Centre for African Culture. Since then, the Nelson Mandela Centre has continued to provide people with a unique insight into African and Creole Culture. In 1989, the African Cultural Centre Trust Fund was formerly established by an enactment of the Parliament of Mauritius-Act No.41 of 1989. In June 2000, the African Cultural Centre Trust Fund Act was amended by the National Assembly and became the Nelson Mandela Centre for African Culture Trust Fund Act-Act No.5 of 2000.
