On 11 November, His Highness the Aga Khan joined over 60 world leaders for the opening session of the inaugural Paris Peace Forum. Initiated by French President Emmanuel Macron, the Forum is founded on the principle that international cooperation is key to tackling global challenges and ensuring durable peace. "It is my conviction that one of the key conditions for peace in our world today is a greater respect for pluralism," explained the Aga Khan. "In a world challenged by globalisation, social fragmentation and conflict between peoples, pluralism and a well-anchored civil society are essential for human peace and progress. This is why the Aga Khan Development Network is delighted to be a partner of the Paris Peace Forum."
