World Congress of
Imams and Rabbis for Peace
Congresses
Thanks to its active neutrality, the Hommes de Parole Foundation is able to bring together personalities and groups considered irreparably antagonistic.
Congresses initiated by the Foundation have taken on a unique character : antagonists have a space where they feel free to speak, where they feel at ease to express their point of view, their disagreement, without taboos, a confident environment where they know they can listen and be heard with reciprocal respect.
This unique context promotes the emergence of the will to enforce dialogue leading to common solutions chosen by the parties themselves. The Israeli-Palestinian Congress of Caux, which took place from 23 to 26 June 2003, was the starting point for the World Congress of Imams and Rabbis for Peace.

CONVOY FOR PEACE: SDEROT – GAZA
Donations needed
The Third Congress of Imams and Rabbis for Peace, held at Unesco headquarters in Paris, from 15 to 17 December last, focused on the Israel-Palestine confict and was entitled "The Sacredness of Peace". Following the Congress, a final declaration was issued, together with an action plan that formally engaged the participants to work in depth and tangibly for peace.
The participants, thus, were impelled to react to the spiral of violence in Gaza and the south of Israel where violent clashes are taking place with, alas, the main victims being civilians.
Further to the commitment made by the spiritual leaders during the Congress and further to the increasing violence, the decision was taken that a "Convoy for Peace" would be organised, together with other partners.
