Ambassador Julien Thöni @swiss_un at the #GVAPeaceTalks: My message today is simple - it is through our values ​​that we can find our way. And one of these fundamental values ​​is dialogue, listening, and seeking solutions together.

Minister Hind Kabawat at the #GVAPeaceTalks: Dialogue is how we move from seeing each other as enemies to recognizing each other’s humanity. It is not about convincing others to agree with you. It is about building bridges strong enough to carry the weight of our differences.

Human dignity develops through the ability of each individual to express themselves, to talk about their suffering & have it recognised & to hear about their reality & daily life in a media outlet that covers topics concerning society as a whole. @CaroVuillemin at #GVAPeaceTalks

Delighted to speak at the #GVAPeaceTalks on why – though structure, systems and processes are necessary – it’s the ‘occasional beauty of naivety’ that has defined much of my career and, through the IFRC network, brought more peaceful lives to millions. Thank you for the invitation @Interpeace_Org. Some great speakers at a great event.

"I’ve learned that, just occasionally, our greatest leaps forward, the greatest innovations, come from moments of not knowing, from having no plan." @jagan_chapagain @ifrc shares highlights from his career learning about the occasional “beauty of naivety” at the #GVAPeaceTalks.

Inspiring call @jagan_chapagain at the conclusion of his @PeaceTalks___ “what if the #redcrossredcrescent emblems become signs of enduring peace not of emergency response because humanity has taken a different path” #GVAPeaceTalks

Art is not a luxury, it's a necessity. It transforms pain into expression & expression into healing. This was my 1st lesson in diplomatic entrepreneurship: dare to use unconventional tools to open doors that traditional diplomacy cannot. Guila Clara Kessous @UNESCO #GVAPeaceTalks

"Innovations born of naivety didn't just get us through the crisis, they set a new precedent for what we could achieve...We had become bolder... because the naivety of the pandemic showed us what was possible." @jagan_chapagain @ifrc sharing key experiences at the #GVAPeaceTalks

Elizabeth Laskar shares a quote from Anna Adulla Mesekwa, founder @CreatorsOfPeace: "Create peace wherever we are, in our hearts, our homes, our workplace & our community. We all pretend that someone else is the stumbling block...Could that someone be myself?” #GVAPeaceTalks

Miranda Shaw @CreatorsOfPeace: I believe that peace must be intersectional and take into consideration structural violence as well as personal change. Peace must include safety, clean air, clean water, nourishing food, safe shelter, time to rest. #GVAPeaceTalks

"Change happens when we dare to speak across differences, to ask the hard questions & to embrace discomfort with the goal of building something better. What conversation will you start today, to heal, to connect & to transform?" Mr Mugiraneza @Interpeace_Org #AddisPeaceTalks

Mr Mugiraneza @Interpeace_Org, shares how dialogue spaces have transformed communities: they are "a living testament to the power of dialogue, not as a tool to debate or to win arguments, but as a space where humanity is restored, where wounds begin to heal." #AddisPeaceTalks
