The Republic of Kenya and the Islamic Republic of Iran have shared a rich heritage spanning hundreds of years particularly, along the Coastal Region. This heritage is the foundation for strengthening bilateral relations between Iran and Kenya, particularly in the area of culture, education and technology. As part of strengthening this relation, the Cultural Council of the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in collaboration with the Government of Kenya through the State Department for Higher Education and Research (SDHER) has organized a cultural, scientific, and educational competition focused on Iranian studies for Kenyan students. The overall objective of this competition is to encourage deeper understanding and appreciating of the contemporary Iranian culture, art, politics, and economics; and create a platform for cultural and educational engagement in meaningful dialogue based on mutual knowledge.

Therefore, the Iranology Contest is an exciting cultural and educational competition designed to promote a deeper understanding of Iran’s rich history, language, culture, and contributions to art and science. Participants, both Kenyan students and enthusiasts, engage in a series of challenges that test their knowledge of Persian literature, Islamic civilization, Iranian heritage, and contemporary Iranian society. Through this contest, the Cultural Council of the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran aims to foster greater cross-cultural appreciation and highlight the significance of Iran in the global cultural landscape.
