Vicennium means a period of twenty years in Latin. Ma'din Academy, an educational institution based in Kerala, India named its 20th anniversary celebration as Vicennium. Thus the latin word became popular in the state.[1][2]
Ma'din's Vicennium Celebration started in 2015 and concluded in 2018. In 2015, the then Chief minister of Kerala Ommen Chandi inaugurated the vicennium and the concluding session was inaugurated by chief minister of Kerala Pinarayi Vijayan in December 2018[3]. UN Secretary-General's Special Adviser for the Prevention of Genocide Adama Dieng was the guest of honor[4]. Number of social workers, politicians and religious leaders also attended the four day long concluding conference of Vicennium. Kerala Governor Justice P. Sathasivam, Hadhramaut scholar Umar bin Hafiz, Adama Dieng, High Representative for the Alliance of Civilizations of the United Nations Nassir Abdulaziz Al-Nasser, Justice Markandey Katju,[5][6] are major guests to name few.
Ma'din also conducted an international history conference on Ibn Battuta as part of this Vicennium Celebration. 20 history scholars from across the globe presented papers.
