The Global Alliance matters more than ever: international attention is waning, settler violence intensifying. At @MAECgob's invitation @PrinciplesPeace brought Uniting for a Shared Future recommendations to Madrid, ahead of UNGA. Thank you @jmalbares for convening.

Honoured to contribute to the Working Group on 'Narratives for Peace, Democracy and Reform' at the Paris Call for the Two-State Solution at @imarabe. Peace requires more than political agreements: it requires narratives that make agreement possible and institutions that make it legitimate. My thanks to @jnbarrot for convening today's event on behalf of France, and to @ALLMEP, @PrinciplesPeace, @lesguerrieres and all civil society organisations present for your vital work 🇪🇺🇫🇷

J'ai assisté cet après-midi à la 2ième édition de l'appel de Paris pour la paix entre Israéliens et Palestiniens, conférence réunissant des représentants associatifs des sociétés civiles palestinienne et israélienne organisée par @ALLMEP @PrinciplesPeace @lesguerrieres et accueillie à l' Institut du Monde Arabe par le Ministre @jnbarrot . Une même volonté de dialogue, de paix et de projets concrets communs anime les participants à cette conférence. Malgré les immenses difficultés du moment et les souffrances endurées.

In the face of the violence in Gaza, a lasting political solution must be found to the conflict. France is continuing to work actively with its partners for a horizon of peace based on the two-state solution.

I spoke at #TED2026 last night in Vancouver. I talked about what four decades of living and working in conflict taught me, and why we need to throw out the old toolbox for pacebuilding. 📸: Ryan Lash & Jason Redmond, @TEDTalks 2026

The Ministry of Interior, Federal Affairs and Reconciliation, in collaboration with Principles for Peace Foundation (P4P), has launched a Peace Simulation Exercise focused on advancing the measurement of reconciliation and social cohesion in Somalia. The exercise brings together participants from Federal Member States, Banadir Regional Administration, and Federal Government institutions to engage in a practical, scenario-based process that tests and refines national approaches to measuring peacebuilding outcomes. Through the application of MOIFAR’s draft Key Performance Indicators under the National Reconciliation Framework, the exercise supports efforts to strengthen alignment, improve data-driven decision-making, and build a more coherent national system for tracking progress toward lasting peace. #DataForPeace #AI4PeaceSomalia #MoIFAR4Reconciliation

Proud to stand with 550+ Israeli and Palestinian leaders of the USF coalition in rejecting the death penalty bill in Israel and the rise in settler violence against Palestinians. This discriminatory path will deepen injustice and insecurity: statement bit.ly/47xoiKo
