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.
