What an Historic Event – The Global Faith Leaders’ Summit: Confluence of Conscience: Uniting Leaders for Planetary Resurgence.

More than 200 Faith Leaders, Scientists, Youth, Business Leaders, Women Leaders, and Politicians, came together in Abu Dhabi 6-7 November to unite their voices and adopt a powerful Interfaith Statement highlighting the common faith values that bring them together, strongly demand world leaders and decision-makers to urgently act, and demonstrate their leadership in committing their institutions to transformative actions.

The Global Summit was co-hosted by UNEP Faith for Earth, the Muslim Council of Elders, COP 28 Presidency, and the Ministry of Tolerance and Coexistence of UAE under the Patronage of the President of UAE His Highness Sheikh Mohamed ben Zayed.
