The Alliance

Watch Now

A short film about the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, Desmond Tutu, President Barack Obama and other leading global opinion-makers discuss the importance of building an alliance of civilizations, in a YouTube introduction to the UN Alliance of Civilizations.

In 2005, the UN Secretary General launched an initiative to advance a vision of the world not as it is – but as it should be.

A vision of a world in which different faiths and cultures can not only live side by side in peace, but come together for the good of all peoples, everywhere.

This vision is the Alliance of Civilizations.

I invite you to watch THE ALLIANCE, a short film about our project. See how we’re working to implement practical, on the ground initiatives which make a difference in the lives of communities. Be inspired. And become a part of the Alliance of Civilizations.
