The cultural exchanges between China and Africa have a long history. The establishment of the new China and successive independence of the African countries opened up a new historical period for China-Africa cultural exchanges and cooperation. China-Africa cultural exchanges and cooperation have become an important part of the friendly and cooperative relationship between China and African countries, an irreplaceable bridge and link for Chinese and African people to exchange their feelings and conduct dialogue between the two civilizations. Since the establishment of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation in 2000, especially since the China-African Summit in 2006, China-Africa cultural relations have entered a new historical era of grand development and prosperity. The China-African exchanges and cooperation, which possess more perfect system, richer contents, more diverse forms and significant results, have made important contributions in promoting comprehensive, balanced and sustainable development of the new strategic partnership between China and Africa, promoting equal dialogues between different civilizations in the world and maintaining diversity of the world cultures. China-Africa cultural exchanges and cooperation would have a broad prospect. <<
