Peace Be With Us: On June 10 Pope Francis And 29 Nobel Prize Winners Will Sign A Document On Fraternity
During the World Meeting on Fraternity organized by the Vatican on June 10, 2023, Pope Francis will sign, with 29 Nobel laureates (see list below), a document on human fraternity, the Holy See Press Office announces June 5
Among the winners present with the pontiff will be former presidents Lech Walęsa (Poland), Juan Manuel Santos (Colombia) and Oscar Arias Sánchez (Cosa-Rica).
The document on fraternity will be the subject of a meeting of 29 Nobel laureates or representatives of award-winning organizations on the morning of June 10 at the Palazzo della Cancelleria
In the afternoon, the document will be presented and signed by the Pope and the Nobel laureates during an event in St. Peter’s Square.
This document on human fraternity should not be confused with the homonymous document signed by the Pope and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar Ahmed al-Tayyeb, in Abu Dhabi, in 2019.
In addition to the Nobel Prize winners and the Pope, artists, scientific and cultural personalities, environmental activists, the homeless, immigrants, schoolchildren and many young people, including young Russians and Ukrainians, will participate in workshops of fraternal reflection.
In the afternoon, young people will form a circle in the square, shaking hands, a “symbolic” gesture of peace.
During this day, St. Peter’s Square will be twinned with other places in the world where similar events will take place: Jerusalem (Israel), Nagazaki (Japan), Bangui (Central African Republic) Addis Ababa (Ethiopia), Buenos Aires (Argentina), Brazzaville (Congo ), Lima (Peru). Conceived as a party, the event will continue until the evening with many Italian artists, including the tenor Andrea Bocelli.
This conference is financed by the Italian companies Fiat, Codiretti, Intesa San Paolo, Italian Airways and Novamont. It will be broadcast by Rai and the Vatican media from 16:00 to 18:45.
