The High Representative of the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations, Miguel Angel Moratinos, said on Sunday that the ninth global forum of the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations will discuss “the necessity of coexistence and the promotion of diversity and wealth.”

This came in an interview conducted by the official Moroccan News Agency with Moratinos, on the sidelines of the ninth Global Forum of the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations, on November 22 and 23 in the Moroccan city of Fez, in the presence of the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Antonio Guterres.

The forum was announced on the sidelines of the 77th session of the United Nations General Assembly.

Moratinos said, “The Fez meeting is the first of its kind in an African country, and it will be an unprecedented event in the history of the alliance.”

He added, “The ninth global forum of the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations will show that pluralism is the only answer in a world that some want to divide, collide, or return to the old iron barriers.”

Moratinos added, “The holding of the ninth Global Forum of the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations in Fez is an important moment. It is an initiative, an event, and a platform that will be held at a very important time.”

He continued, “We will send, during this forum, a message of peace and understanding, the necessity of coexistence, and the promotion of diversity and wealth, not exclusion.”

He pointed out that more than 1,000 citizens from all over the world have been registered, working every day for understanding and respecting different cultures and civilizations.

According to Moratinos, 96 delegations from all countries, with nearly 50 member states represented at the ministerial level, will participate in the forum, which has been setting records since its inception in Madrid in 2007.
