On Tuesday 3 December, the 14th Peace and Sport International Forum brought together a host of champions and leading sports figures, as well as Prince Albert II, to promote peace in an increasingly divided world. The day was organised in three parts: the International Forum, the Peace Walk and the Peace and Sport Awards.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

This year, the Peace and Sport International Forum highlighted global initiatives that use sport to promote peace and inclusion. This 14th edition is part of the “Speak Your Peace” initiative, an international campaign run by Peace and Sport to remind people that sport is a powerful means of passing universal values on to younger generations.<\/p>\n\n

A symbolic peace ‘march’<\/h2>\n\n

After a packed day of inspiring conferences and round tables, the peace champions and the general public made their way to the Rock for the famous Walk for Peace, a symbolic moment as big names walked from the Prince’s Palace square to the Oceanographic Museum.<\/p>\n\n

Alongside Prince Albert II, influential figures from the sporting world such as Didier Drogba, Sifan Hassan (multiple Olympic medallist) and Tony Estanguet (President of Paris 2024) took part in the walk, adding their voices to a message of solidarity and unity in a world that is often plagued with conflict.<\/p>\n\n

Before the walk set off, the participants were able to admire the white illuminations on the Palace walls. They all then posed together for the photographers, “White Card” in hand, as a symbol of peace.<\/p>\n\n

“We are very proud to have brought together the most influential sports leaders and champions here in Monaco for this unique event. For 17 years, we have been striving to pass on the values of peace through sport. In the current tense geopolitical climate, it is essential to show that the sporting world can also act as a catalyst for peace,”<\/em> said Jo\u00ebl Bouzou, Chairman and Founder of Peace and Sport.<\/p><\/p>\n\n
