* PRESENTATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT'S NORMANDY FOR PEACE INDEX The European Parliament will publish for the first time in 2019, an index of peace, measuring each year the level of conflictuality in the world. The index will be based on the global strategy for the European Union's foreign and security policy adopted in 2016 and on identified threats; hybrid threats, terrorism, cyber security, terrorism, economic instability, climate change and energy insecurity, ..). The index will measure the state of conflictuality in the world. It will be complementary to the other existing indices. This index will be called "Normandy index" and will be presented exclusively at the forum by the European Parliament and the Institute for Economics years Peace, Australian think tank behind the Global Peace Index and recognized worldwide for their studies on state of peace. * HOW TO BUILD A SUSTAINABLE PEACE? Once the agreements are signed and the arms deposited, peace is not guaranteed and effective. The environmental challenges and their announced economic, security and societal consequences are a source of undeniable fragility for peace. The roadmap drawn by the UN in 2015 integrated peace and justice with the Sustainable Development Goals to be achieved by 2030. In this perspective, what are the tools to ensure the stabilization of territories in post-conflict situations and avoid the resurgence of conflict tomorrow? Do the processes of reconciliation and reconstruction and the actors involved always incorporate a long-term vision to build lasting peace? * CLOSING CEREMONY Closing remarks by Hervé Morin, President of the Normandy Region. Announcement of the launch of the Normandy for Peace Chair, in the presence of CNRS President Antoine Petit and the President of the University of Caen, Pierre Denise.
