* SPEECH BY DENIS MUKWEGE, NOBEL PRIZE FOR PEACE 2018 Opening of the World Forum by Hervé Morin, President of the Normandy Region followed by a speech by Denis Mukwege, Nobel Peace Prize 2018. * HUMANIZE PEACE: WHAT ACTORS? The evolution of forms of conflicts in the world, less interstate and more diffuse, leads a multitude of actors to intervene to solve, avoid or mitigate their traces. International organizations, diplomatic corps, military forces, NGOs involved in the field, religious orders or emanations of civil society: who are the peacemakers? What are their strategies and what means do they have to build peace? * PRESENTATION OF THE NORMANDY MANIFESTO FOR PEACE The Normandy World Peace Forum 2019 will launch a public call for awareness of the need for lasting peace, in partnership with the Strategic Foresight Group of India. Written and presented at the forum by Nobel Laureates Jody Williams, Mohamed El Baradei, Leymah Gbowee and civil society figures committed to peace as Anthony Grayling, philosopher and Sundeep Waslekar, president of Strategic Foresight Group. This Manifesto will be proposed to the signature of all the participants of the forum.
