Sino-African cooperation has often been portrayed as an economic one.Despite multiple exchanges in the area of culture and knowledge production, not much is written about chinese culture in Africa or knowledge production interaction between both China and Africa.Just to give an example, each African major town has chinese restaurants and Africans like chinese food.But food is seen as an economic asset, not a cultural one.Chinese cuisine is not enough taken as scientific knowledge, but as professional economic skills.I want to argue that economics is not divorced from culture and academia.I further want to understand how culture and academia have also united China and Africa for a long time now.I advocate to African universities to include chinese knowledge in their curriculum in same way they are linked to western universities.I will choose few countries of Africa and examine how this cultural and academic exchange happens with China.
