Yousef bin Ahmed Al-Othaimeen, secretary-general of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), has called for more awareness of the increasing dangers of Islamophobia, through the dissemination of principles of peace and harmony between communities.
He was speaking at the recently held 4th World Forum on Intercultural Dialogue in Baku, Azerbaijan.
He confirmed the continuous commitment of the OIC to support innovative ideas to instill the values of tolerance between religions, cultures and civilizations, the commitment undertaken in the framework of a 10-year work program to the year 2025.
“It lays upon all of us the responsibility to promote the culture of tolerance, peaceful coexistence and mutual understanding with continuous work to develop new ways to promote intercultural dialogue based on the principle of accepting others and mutual respect,” Al-Othaimeen said.
He noted that selecting “promoting intercultural dialogue, new horizons for human security, peace and sustainable development,” as the theme for this year’s session of the forum, reinforces the conviction that culture can play a key role in strengthening the global framework for development.
