President appoints head of National Center for Globalization Studies
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Sunday assigned head of Iran's Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization (ICHHTO) Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei as head of the National Center for Globalization Studies.
Ahmadinejad said in his letter to Mashaei that the center will work in parallel with the National Center for Dialogue of
Civilizations under the presidential office.
Former president Mohammad Khatami ran the Center for Dialogue of Civilizations after he handed over the presidency to Ahmadinejad in 2005.
Khatami is proponent of Dialogue of Civilizations and the United Nations designated the year 2001 as 'Year of Dialogue of
Civilizations' upon a proposal to that effect by Khatami in his statement to the UN General Assembly.
