Africa Day 2021
According to tradition, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation is celebrating “Africa Day”, to mark the anniversary of the establishment, on 25 May 1963, in Addis Ababa, of the Organisation of African Unity, which changed its name to African Union in 2002. This year, due to the pandemic situation, the Foreign Ministry has created a “virtual exhibition” aimed at showing to the general public some of the main works of art from Africa displayed both in international museums and in Italy. The event, sponsored by the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM), will be streamed on 25 May (for more information visit the website esteri.it and the Foreign Ministry’s social media channels).
