Discover the third edition of the Paris Peace Forum
In 2020, the world faces a health crisis with dramatic consequences that know no borders and calls for collective solutions. Yet international coordination is at a loss, while short-term national calculations and lack of solidarity, especially with developing countries, take precedence.
The Paris Peace Forum was created to respond to this multilateralism crisis, which is not new but has sharply increased in 2020. Given the scale of the challenges before us, the Forum will devote its third edition to projects and initiatives from around the world aimed at providing immediate responses to the Coronavirus crisis, improving our resilience in the medium term, and rebuilding a more sustainable world.
Ten days after the American election and ten days before the G20 Summit in Riyadh, the third edition of the Paris Peace Forum will be the largest gathering of all actors involved in responding to the crisis, from 11 to 13 November 2020.
