  THE PEACE AND SPORT ANNUAL FORUM  
 


Under the High Patronage of HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, the “Peace and Sport” Annual Forum is designed to work on the concrete development of peace through sport around the world.

The “Peace and Sport” Forum is a unique international gathering which enables the highest authorities from the world of politics, sport and from economic and civilian life to discuss a common issue:  how can sport help to reconcile divided communities and get them to tolerate their differences?
It brings together heads of states and governments, representatives from world sport governance bodies (the International Olympic Committee, International Federations, National Olympic Committees), the World Olympians Association, strategic and financial partners, sport experts, and NGOs.
A privileged meeting place, the Forum enables:

  • Information exchange, to secure the adequacy between the needs identified by governments and the solutions brought by actors from the world of sport

  • Identification of future Locally-Based Projects

  • Presentation of  best practices

  • Updates on projects in progress

  • An active network to be developed

  • Emergencies to be addressed
