The co-chairman and co-organizer of the Charter, Bhai Sahib Professor Mohinder Singh Ahluwalia, as well as his advisor Amrik Bhabra, actively participated in the World Assembly, speaking at the panel session "Spiritual Unity for Peace and Humanity." The guests from Great Britain met with Andrey Belyaninov, Secretary General of the World.
The Peace Charter for Forgiveness and Reconciliation was adopted on August 20, 2019 at the 10th World Assembly of Religions for Peace in Lindau (Germany). Since its adoption, consistent international work has been carried out to unite people from different countries and cultures based on its principles.
At the heart of the Charter is a deep understanding that lasting and sustainable peace is impossible without forgiveness and reconciliation. The document emphasizes that ending physical violence is only the first step, whereas genuine peacebuilding requires internal transformation, healing historical traumas and restoring trust between people, communities and States.
The Charter attaches particular importance to the role of spiritual culture, faith, and spiritual traditions that evoke the best qualities of human nature — compassion, mercy, love, responsibility, and respect for the dignity of everyone. These values are considered as a universal basis for intercultural and interreligious dialogue.
The World Peoples Assembly considers the Peace Charter for Forgiveness and Reconciliation as a significant international document fully consistent with the mission and objectives of the Assembly, including the development of public diplomacy, strengthening spiritual culture, the formation of a space of trust and conscious unity of peoples.
The support of the Charter at the World Public Assembly became an important confirmation of a common value platform and readiness for further cooperation in promoting the ideas of peace, mutual understanding and intercultural harmony in the today's interdependent world.
