Rio de Janeiro to host the III World Forum of Alliance of Civilizations

11 February 2010

The III World Forum of Alliance of Civilizations will take place in Rio de Janeiro on 28-29 May 2010. The idea of an Alliance of Civilizations is a matter of natural interest to Brazil, a multicultural and multiracial country that embraces diversity as a factor that marks its identity.

On this third edition of the World Forum of Alliance of Civilizations, Brazil will work towards giving global character to the event, seeking greater involvement by neighbouring nations and from the African countries, encouraging them to engage more actively in all its endeavours.
