Yesterday, the “Building Bridges to the Future… UAE and China” event was launched on Abu Dhabi Corniche, celebrating the 40th anniversary of the solid partnership between the United Arab Emirates and the People’s Republic of China.
The event, which is organized in cooperation with the Department of Culture and Tourism in Abu Dhabi and continues until tomorrow, includes many interactive activities that reflect the common values and future vision that brings together both the Emirates and China, and revolves around the themes of contemplating the past and present and anticipating the future, highlighting the strong ties and important milestones. And the pivotal moments and the spirit of cooperation that brings together the UAE and China, these strong ties that have been strengthened over the past years, with the visit of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the State, may God protect him, to China last June.
Visitors to Abu Dhabi Corniche will enjoy a vibrant cultural atmosphere that combines the flavors of the Emirati and Chinese heritage, as they will have the opportunity to participate in interactive workshops that open the doors to exploring the traditional crafts of the two countries.
The 100 Schools Project, which was launched in 2019, played a role in raising the level of Chinese language proficiency among Emirati students. More than 1,000 students have also graduated from the Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan Center for the Study of Arabic Language and Islamic Studies in Beijing, since its establishment in 1994.
The UAE-China relationship dates back to 1984, when its foundations were based on the principles of mutual respect, understanding, and common goals. Today, this partnership is stronger than ever.
The Chinese Cultural Center in the UAE is a living symbol of this friendship, through its commitment to promoting cultural exchange and constructive cooperation. Its efforts extend to include various segments of Emirati society, as it contributes to engaging local communities and creating opportunities for authentic dialogue, which enhances the spirit of common growth and deepens relations between the two cultures.
The “Building Bridges to the Future… UAE and China” event represents an exceptional opportunity for visitors to celebrate the partnership between the UAE and China, and explore the values that unite the cultures of the two countries.
A symbolic price has been allocated for entry to the celebration on the Abu Dhabi Corniche, amounting to 10 dirhams.
