According to Iran's Islamic Culture and Relations Organization (ICRO), more than 50 Muslim and Christian university students participated in the educational program, which was held in cooperation with academic figures and Christian priests, IQNA reported.

The closing ceremony of the course was attended by official from Iran's Culture Ministry.

Speaking at the ceremony, Deputy Minister of Education Ali Mahdavi said that the number of Muslims in Zimbabwe is rising and that there is need for such courses in all parts of the country, not just Harare, to prevent the formation of extremist groups.
