Last week, I was invited by UNESCO to represent Chinese NGOs in attending the ICESCO Silk Road Forum in the Kingdom of Morocco. After discussions with leaders of ICESCO, the Sultan Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud Foundation, and experts and scholars from various countries,guests from various countries look forward to the interaction between Chinese NGOs and the 57 countries of Islamic world  in multiple fields.

We can experience the diverse cultural charm of various countries through international food exchanges, and break through regional and language barriers.

 

As an official partner of UNESCO, the Foundation hopes to work together with everyone to sort out and improve standards, models, channels, and service systems, innovate cooperation in the domestic and international food industry chain, to promote the integration of food culture with museums and cultural tourism industries, and contributing to world peace and civil diplomacy in the capital city of Beijing.
