Ambassador Tharit Charungvat, Ambassador of Thailand in Ankara, visited IRCICA on 28 January 2014. The meeting in Director General Dr. Halit Eren’s office focused mainly on the subject of dialogue and cultural understanding between peoples of the world and the Centre’s activities aiming to contribute in that direction. Specifically, the project to organize an international congress on “The Coexistence of Faiths and Cultures”, undertaken jointly by the Government of Thailand and IRCICA, was discussed. The congress is to be held in Thailand in spring 2015. It is expected to define and encourage scholarly perspectives in understanding and promoting multicultural, especially multi-faith coexistence particularly in the context of Thailand and its region.
