Normandy for Peace

About
The Normandy for Peace initiative is the result of the Region’s desire to continue the work which began in 1945 to promote remembrance in Normandy and to become a laboratory for lasting peace. During the World Forum and throughout the year, initiatives, certified projects and events promote the values of peace and freedom which are so important to Normandy.
World Forum
This Forum is an annual opportunity for reflection and discussion on global tensions and peace-building. It is led by experts in geopolitics, alongside representatives of States, the academic world and civil society.

Education for peace, raising awareness of geopolitical questions and remembrance are at the heart of Normandy for Peace. The Region draws on high-level scientific expertise, developed within a hub of academic expertise on issues related to peace. Young people occupy an important role within the World Forum and the events created and supported by the Normandy Region throughout the year.
Join the initiative
Normandy for Peace also organises an annual programme of educational events, exhibitions, academic conferences and cultural events. Organised by the Region and its partners, these events demonstrate Normandy’s focus on the values of peace and freedom.
