This invitation is a form of harmonious cooperation between UIN Sunan Kalijaga and Zaituna University, Tunisia because previously the Rector of Zaituna University Prof. Dr. Abdel Lathif Bou Azizi had visited UIN Sunan Kalijaga and met twice, namely since 2022 and 2024. Indeed, Dr. Andi Holilulloh, S.Pd.I., M.A. was invited to the oldest university in the world for several academic activities, including for international scientific seminars and being a resource person in an academic writing training held at Zaituna University, Tunisia from October 3-14, 2024.
