Paris Peace Forum

Two 2021 Global Pluralism Award finalists participated in the fourth edition of the Paris Peace Forum in November 2021. More than a conference, fair or summit, the Forum is a singular platform gathering all actors of global governance to design concrete initiatives and reinvent contemporary cooperation. It is also a space for networking, bilateral meetings and mediation. In 2021, more than 15,000 people participated in the Forum virtually.

Dani Elazar, Chief Executive Officer of Hand in Hand: Center for Jewish-Arab Education in Israel and Aisha Khagai of Namati Kenya joined the Centre’s Secretary General Meredith Preston McGhie and Catherine Bossard, Director of Observatoire Pharos for a virtual conversation focused on how civic participation is essential to addressing issues of inequality, exclusion, and division.
