The Chinese Film Week in Morocco kicked off on Thursday, organized by the University Mohammed V of Rabat and the Confucius Institute in collaboration with the Cultural Center of China in Rabat.

On this occasion, Mohammed V University President Mohamed El Ghachi stressed that the new headquarters of the Confucius Institute in Rabat, which hosts this event, is the result of sustained efforts in a model partnership.

The training curriculum for students of the Confucius Institute includes various activities including the Chinese Film Week, he said, noting that the integration of audiovisual content and art in general in the curriculum increases its effectiveness.

El Ghachi told MAP that as in previous years, Mohammed V University and the Chinese Embassy in Morocco celebrate the Chinese Film Week which takes place this year at the headquarters of the recently inaugurated Confucius Institute.

He further noted that the University Mohammed V of Rabat currently has more than a thousand students enrolled in courses of Chinese language and culture.

El Ghachi stressed that in addition to the efforts made on the training level through the creation of dedicated courses, the university contributes to training programs for teachers of the Chinese language.

Chinese Ambassador to Morocco Li Changlin said that documentary films will be shown during this week, considering it an ideal opportunity to bring students closer to China, its language and culture.

After reviewing the various areas of cooperation between Rabat and Beijing, the Chinese diplomat stressed that Morocco and China share a millennial history and an exceptional cultural heritage.
