Do you have a project offering a concrete solution to tackle a global challenge? Participate in the third edition of the Paris Peace Forum, from 11 to 13 November 2020, to present it.
On 11-13 November 2020, the third edition of the Paris Peace Forum will offer the first opportunity to gather the international community and turn the page of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Each year, the Paris Peace Forum launches a Call for Projects to select concrete governance solutions which take on global challenges related to the 6 themes comprising the focus of the annual event:
Peace & Security
Development
Environment
New technologies
Inclusive economy
Culture & Education
In 2020, the world is facing a transnational challenge in the form of a worldwide health crisis. This year, given the extraordinary context of the Coronavirus pandemic, the Forum will emphasize projects and initiatives from around the world seeking to respond to the COVID-19 crisis, improve our collective resilience and build a more robust and sustainable world. Particular attention will be paid to projects improving:
the governance of health
the use and regulation of digital tools and platforms to respond to the crisis
the support of civil society and economic activity in times of pandemics
In addition, initiatives addressing other global governance issues will also be highlighted in the Forum, particularly those related to the following objectives:
Constructing more solid security architectures
Reconciling development finance with climate efforts
Crafting sustainable capitalism
Protecting the oceans
Improving access to clean water
Making outer space safe and sustainable
Securing cyberspace
Regulating the use of data and AI
Enhancing the governance of education
Ensuring gender equality
During the annual Forum in Paris, the selected projects are each given the opportunity to showcase their initiative. In 2020, due to the extraordinary circumstances created by the COVID-19 pandemic, only some projects designated by the Selection Committee will be able to travel to Paris. All other selected projects will be offered a digital presentation with innovative features and dedicated tools of interaction and networking with the participants.
