The "El-Jahidhiya" Cultural Association is set to explore the thought of Saint Augustine this Saturday afternoon at its headquarters in central Algiers. 

This intellectual exploration will take place during a high-level symposium organized to discuss the historic visit of Pope Leo XIV to Algeria. The symposium will be moderated by Dr. Athmane Abdellouche, who will delve into several key themes:

*Theme 1:* The Pope's visit to Algeria: Significance of timing and the current geopolitical context.

*Theme 2:* The Augustinian legacy: Algeria as a historical bridge and a center for global dialogue.

*Theme 3:* Algerian spiritual diplomacy in the face of attempts to Judaize Jerusalem and attacks on holy sites.

*Theme 4:* "Justice is the foundation of governance": A reading of Saint Augustine's thought and contemporary human reality.
