The Alliance of Civilizations (AoC) initiative, co-sponsored by the Heads of Government of Spain and Turkey, aims to improve understanding and respect among diverse societies across cultures and religions, thus contributing to reducing the tensions that afflict many regions of the world.
Its High-level Group of20 eminent personalities presented its report and recommendations in November 2006 in Istanbul.
In April this year, I appointed His Excellency Mr. Jorge Sampaio, former President of Portugal, as High Representative for the Alliance of Civilizations. Under his guidance, a plan of action has been developed which outlines a range of projects in the areas of youth, media, education and migration, aimed at promoting intercultural understanding and building bridges among a diversity of societies and cultures. In pursuit of these goals, the Alliance is working in close partnership with governments, international and regional organizations, civil society groups, foundations, and the private sector.
I am pleased to inform you of the establishment of a voluntary Trust Fund for the Alliance of Civilizations. This Fund will support the activities of the High Representative, the work ofthe Alliance Secretariat as well as the projects and initiatives to be advanced or promoted under the action plan.
I would like to invite your Government to consider making a contribution to the newly-established voluntary Trust Fund for the Alliance of Civilizations, thereby helping to strengthen the AoC role in fostering mutually beneficial relations among diverse nations and communities.
