From May 16 to 17, Daniel Rojas Medellin, Minister of Education of Colombia, led a delegation to visit our university, accompanied by Ms. Annie Maya, Consul General of Colombia in Guangzhou. Li Fengliang, Chairman of the University Committee of SCAU, and Xue Hongwei, President of SCAU, received the delegation. Both parties signed the Memorandum of Understanding on Cooperation between South China Agricultural University and ICETEX. 

Since 2020, SCAU has led the China–Latin America Agricultural Education and Research Innovation Alliance (CLAERIA), which now includes 74 institutions from 15 Latin American countries — including 19 universities from Colombia.

We has worked with Colombian institutions to establish several joint platforms, including the China–Colombia Joint Research Center of Rice.
