How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

The Kemet Boutros Ghali Foundation for Peace and Knowledge aims to promote dialogue, free access to information as well as peace and knowledge with an emphasis on Egyptian heritage and how it is reflected in Egypt's present strategic importance in the heart of the region and in the world at large. KBG is committed to working with the state to ensure that Egyptians enjoy all cultural rights without discrimination based on age gender, geographic location, religion, financial capacity, or any other ground. Special attention is given to remote areas, most vulnerable groups, Egyptian youth and women. We have partnered with many universities, CSOs and International organisations to raise awareness on peace and knowledge.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

KBG shares the same mission, vision and values with ALF. We at KBG strongly believe that culture emerges as an essential factor for both sustainable development and lasting peace. In fact, neither equitable progress nor social cohesion is truly possible if culture is left to one side. The road to inclusive social and economic development, environmental sustainability, peace and security is firmly grounded in culture, understood in its spiritual, material, intellectual, and emotional dimensions and encompassing diverse value systems, traditions and beliefs.
