South Korean Ambassador visits ALC’s CIMA Corner at ADIBF

ABU DHABI, 28th May, 2022 (WAM) — The Abu Dhabi Arabic Language Centre (ALC) today welcomed Lee Seok-gu, Ambassador of the Republic of Korea to the UAE, to the 31st Abu Dhabi International Book Fair (ADIBF).

The Ambassador was received by Saeed Hamdan Al Tunaiji, Acting Executive Director of the ALC and Director of ADIBF, and Dr. Khalil Al Sheikh, Acting Director of Arabic Language Education and Research Department Director.

Ambassador Lee was briefed on the Centre’s activities and visited the CIMA pavilion at the fair. Developed by the Institut du Monde Arabe (Arab World Institute) in Paris, CIMA, the Certificat International de Maîtrise en Arabe (International Certificate for Proficiency in Arabic) is the first internationally recognised certification to assess proficiency in modern standard Arabic. The initiative was founded in 2018 to encourage non-Arabic speakers to learn and master the language.
