That's a wrap on the 2023 Forum!

About
Missions and values
ln a world where collective action is more urgent than ever but where competition and the complexity of global challenges seem overwhelming, the Paris Peace Forum is a platform open to all seeking to develop coordination, rules, capacities and political momentum.
Year-round support activities and an annual event in November help better organize our planet by convening the world, boosting projects, and incubating multi-actor initiatives.
The 2023 Forum
Seeking Common Ground in a World of Rivalry
In a world dominated by a rising US-China rivalry, it is as urgent as ever to find common ground on the governance of global commons and global public goods in domains like climate change, outer space or critical minerals. Facilitating dialogue, creating action-oriented coalitions and defining norms or pre-norms is our way to deliver efficient responses to the urgent challenges of our time.

The 2023
Paris Peace Forum
Policy Initiatives
Addressing our world's greatest challenges
The Forum serves as an incubator and platform of new global governance policy initiatives. Each initiative pioneers new forms of cooperation between governments, international organizations, civil society and businesses to deliver concrete results.
Projects
Accelerating solutions that make a difference
The Forum is not only about these large deliverables, but it also takes a bottom-up approach to accelerate concrete initiatives. The Paris Peace Forum continues to demonstrate that in a deteriorated international environment it is still possible to advance governance solutions, scale up projects and launch new initiatives. Since its creation, the Forum has supported and accompanied more than 400 projects that respond to the cross-border challenges of our time.
