The birth of the Italian Comboni Center (CIC) was celebrated with an event during which the “Celi” diplomas were delivered to the Sudanese students who passed the Italian language test. “The Comboni College in Khartoum is proof the strength of cross-cultural living- said the Ambassador Fabrizio Lobasso – we are indeed in the presence of a key Italian cultural centre, in the heart of a city and a country who lives in a religious context that in some respects is very different from that which inspires the Comboni College.
