Abstract
In the contemporary context of profound mutual learning among global civilizations, China–Africa language and cultural exchanges have transcended the scope of traditional people-to-people exchanges, emerging as a key strategic pivot for South–South cooperation. This Special Issue focuses on such exchanges, exploring how Chinese and African participants achieve cross-cultural knowledge production and communication through pluriversal synergies while preserving the uniqueness of their civilizations. The research findings of the six articles indicate that China–Africa exchanges based on equality and mutual benefit are widespread in practice. The exchanges continue the long history of interaction between the two regions and involve multiple subjects, fields regions; they are also multidimensional. The development of digital media has further weakened the constraints of time and space, providing more possibilities for China–Africa language and cultural exchanges.
