💬 Why is it so hard to talk to each other? In her speech, @MeredithGCP explores why meaningful conversations feel harder than ever. But with rising global crises and the pull of ideological bubbles, what we actually need to do is to not accept the premise of polarization, but to invite disagreement in and greet it with understanding. What helps you engage in difficult conversations?👇 #PluralismInAction

For His Highness The Aga Khan IV, pluralism means embracing differences. His belief that diversity strengthens society has guided AKF since our establishment in 1967. We are committed to carrying this legacy forward as we build a future where we all thrive together.

The architecture of violence in Sudan and Eastern DRC follows old patterns: domestic actors' political ambitions interwoven with weak states and foreign interests. Destruction devours institutions and people. 7 million displaced in Sudan. Goma teeters 🧵

Barack Obama@BarackObama·
I’ve been spending a lot of time thinking about how to build rules and habits that allow us to disagree deeply while still being able to live together. On December 5, I’ll talk more about this idea – called pluralism – at our third annual @ObamaFoundation Democracy Forum. Learn more at obama.org/2024-democracy…

It’s a privilege to be moderating a panel discussion on November 11th, titled “Cohesion in a Fractured World: Interfaith Innovation Amid a Multicrisis” @ParisPeaceForum. Together, we’ll explore how faith & culture can be a catalyst for understanding and unity. We’ll tackle essential questions: How can we turn diversity into a foundation for unity? Can interfaith cohesion lead us to solutions for today’s #multicrises?  Delivering a keynote will be H.E @NouraAlKaabi - Minister of State @mofauae, followed by a panel discussion with Chris Seiple - Senior Fellow, @UWJSIS, Abdullah Shehi - Acting Executive Director of the @abrahamicfh, and @MeredithGCP -SG @GlobalPluralism #PPF2024

@AmbMKimani it was such a pleasure to exchange ideas and think about how we can expand this discussion, amplify good work that is underway and encourage greater commitment to pluralism to underpin successful, peaceful societies. More to come!
Martin Kimani@AmbMKimani

States that protect pluralism are safer and fairer. I discussed how to partner to bring this about with @MeredithGCP, SG of the Global Centre for Pluralism. I was reminded of the Oct 2021 UNSC debate chaired by President Kenyatta on statebuilding, identity, & the search for peace

These kinds of pictures drive me bananas. The suggestion that a woman needs extra help to get her to the podium… so what? I have to adjust the 🎤 every time I take a stage. When we focus on images like this we reinforce an idea of inferiority & it’s deeply insulting for women.

My TEDX Talk is live! I hope we all explore how we find the middle ground, how we use it, what we do when it feels too dangerous, what we do when we fail, & how we pick ourselves up to try again. youtube.com/watch?v=JJBgVY… 1/2
