Advisor to His Majesty the King, André Azoulay, represented His Majesty King Mohammed VI at the inaugural session of the Paris Peace Forum, which brings together heads of state and government, leaders of international organizations, and civil society players (including NGOs, private companies, trade unions, think tanks, experts, journalists, and the media) from all over the world to improve global governance.
The 6th edition of the Paris Peace Forum is underway until November 11, under the theme “Seeking Common Ground in a World of Rivalry”.
Discussions will focus on finding common ground on the governance of common spaces and global public goods in fields such as climate change, outer space, and critical minerals.
The Paris Peace Forum’s special contribution to the urgent challenges of our time is reflected in the fact that it provides a platform to facilitate dialogue, build action-oriented coalitions, and define norms or pre-standards.
The Forum leverages its community of members and partners, as well as its privileged access to expertise and diplomatic networks, to launch and speed up multi-stakeholder initiatives to address global challenges.
The Paris Peace Forum’s 2023 action priorities include protecting the planet and the people, reducing inequality, speeding up the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), promoting peace and stability, and reinforcing trust and security in the digital world.
