Africa and China Higher Education Cooperation and Exchange: Effects of the Short-term Seminars

Résumé

This paper presents the cooperation and exchanges between African countries and China in the field of higher education, precisely the case of the short-term seminars organised by China for African scholars. It aims at looking more closely into the effects of these shortterm seminars. Based on online surveys, interviews, observations and personal experiences, the study found that these short-term seminars benefit both Africa and China by strengthening participants' skills, broadening international views on the one hand, and strengthening China's international relations ties on the other hand. Based from the results, some concrete suggestions to strengthen higher education cooperation and exchanges between African countries and China in general were formulated to improve the quality and efficiency of these short-term seminars in particular. These suggestions include the establishment of an exchange platform, the improvement of the quality of communication, the promotion of scholarship awarding for long-term studies to young Africans, and the promotion of mutual understanding.
