Chinese Government provides RMB 300 million grant for establishment of Confucius Institute at Lycée de la Révolution

On June 23, 2019, the Chinese Government and the Government of the Republic of Congo signed an RMB 300 million grant agreement for the establishment of a Confucius Institute Classroom at the Lycée de la Révolution (Revolution High School) within the Gampo-Olilou school complex, which is located in Ouenzé in District 5. The Chinese educational institution associated with the classroom is the Henan Experimental High School (河南省实验中学). Confucius Institute classes commenced at Lycée de la Révolution on April 9, 2021. The project was officially completed and inaugurated on April 9, 2022.

Additional details

1. The French project title is "La Classe Confucius du Complexe Scolaire Révolution Gampo-Olilou.” 2. This is the first Confucius Institute Classroom (as opposed to Confucius Institutes, about which information can be found in projects #30807 and #59775) in Congo. 3. Henan Experimental High School is also known as Henan Experimental Middle School (河南省实验中学) 4. Hanban has been assumed as the financing organization; while an Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement (ETCA) was signed the same day as the grant agreement, Hanban is typically the funding agency for Confucius Institutes/Confucius Classrooms. Thus, in absence of direct evidence to the contrary, AidData has deferred to coding the financing agency as "Hanban".
