Interview with Mohammed Arkoun: "Human beings have always lived in situations of fragile peace" UNESCO - 18 September 2008
On 18 September 2008, the Director-General of UNESCO awarded the 2008 UNESCO Prize for Peace Education to the Institute for Justice and Reconciliation in South Africa, for its outstanding efforts towards a lasting reconciliation through education and against systemic injustice in Africa. Mohammed Arkoun, President of the International Jury for the 2008 Prize, explains the reasons for this choice. He asserts that human beings have always lived in situations of insecurity. Societies cannot build a culture of peace without a culture which is shared globally. The work, undertaken by this Institute, must persevere in this direction.
