The Forum on China and Africa Cooperation is set to take place in Beijing from September 4 to 6, marking the latest gathering since the 2018 meeting in the same city. This year’s forum is themed \"Joining Hands to Advance Modernization and Build a High-Level China-Africa Community with a Shared Future.\"
Attendees can look forward to a variety of activities, including an opening ceremony, a welcoming banquet, gala performances, high-level meetings, and the Conference of Chinese and African Entrepreneurs. Additionally, bilateral meetings will occur on the sidelines, fostering deeper collaboration.
In the lead-up to the event, CGTN is hosting a series of roundtable discussions featuring African officials and business leaders who have observed the enduring friendship between China and Africa.
