The summit brought together numerous decision-makers, business leaders, and academic figures to formulate a shared vision for building a better and more harmonious world.

Shaikh Al Mahfouz Bin Bayyah, Secretary-General of the Abu Dhabi Forum for Peace, delivered a speech titled “Challenges of Peace in a Hostile World,” in which he emphasised that the journey of building peace is a continuous effort and an unending goal. “When well-being and security prevail, we talk about peace to preserve and sustain it; and when wars and unrest escalate, calling for peace becomes a vital necessity and a moral duty to save humanity and protect nations,” he said.

He pointed out that peace is not merely a transient human condition, but rather a “system of human values that yields tranquillity and reassurance, which settle in hearts and minds.”
