ALGIERS — Algeria’s Minister of Youth, Mustapha Hidaoui, received a delegation of young Tunisians in Algiers on Saturday evening as part of a bilateral youth exchange programme designed to reinforce the longstanding bonds of fraternity and cooperation between Algeria and Tunisia, the Ministry of Youth said on Sunday.
The meeting took place at the Palace of the Raïs (Bastion 23) Arts and Culture Centre, where the Tunisian delegation is participating in a week-long programme running from 23 to 29 June. The initiative features a series of field visits, cultural activities and exchange sessions intended to foster dialogue, strengthen bilateral relations and promote the sharing of experiences between young people from both countries.
Youth Exchanges Highlighted as a Platform for Dialogue
The reception was attended by the Director of Youth and Sports for Blida Province, alongside senior officials from the youth sector.
In his welcoming address, Hidaoui underscored the historical depth of the relationship between the Algerian and Tunisian peoples, describing youth exchange programmes as an important mechanism for reinforcing fraternity while encouraging dialogue and closer interaction between younger generations.
He said such initiatives contribute to promoting the values of cooperation, solidarity and openness, while creating opportunities for young people to build lasting relationships based on mutual understanding.
Youth Diplomacy Viewed as a Strategic Instrument
The minister also stressed the growing importance of youth diplomacy, describing it as an essential pillar for strengthening relations between peoples and fostering cultural rapprochement through dialogue and the exchange of expertise.
According to Hidaoui, young people constitute a dynamic force capable of building bridges of communication and developing partnerships founded on mutual respect and shared interests, thereby contributing to the further consolidation of the longstanding fraternal relations between Algeria and Tunisia.
The exchange programme forms part of broader bilateral efforts to encourage greater interaction between the youth of both countries through educational, cultural and field-based activities aimed at promoting regional cooperation and mutual understanding.
