Economic, social, or political crises; climate change; our world is facing growing inequalities and increased dangers. Despite the deterioration of the international situation, we must still !"#$%&!"'&()*+ ,-.&+ '-'/"0&+ 1$"#%$"&'-tional processes. War is never a solu-tion nor is it inevitable. Around the world, often behind the scenes, men and women of good will are working at reconciliation and peace.

While tensions are heightening and extremist tendencies are exacerbated everywhere, these individuals work $"+ &.(+ ,()23+ '4'*+ #%$5+ &.(+ 06$&)/-.&3+with patience and determination. 7.(0(+6'1/,0&0+4$%8+(9(%*+2'*+0$+&.'&+

harmony prevails over discord and chaos. These are women and men who, often alone and anonymous, courageously unravel the fragile thread of dialogue between peoples, between religions, and even among populations torn apart within a same region.

These women and men, through vigi-lant and relentless efforts, make the future possible. Through their acts, they embody the values of the highest forms of humanism and proclaim hu-man rights through urgent actions. They shatter the silence of oppression.

I would like to pay tribute to these pa-tient mediators who every day renew their commitment, sometimes at the risk of their lives, to defend and share the universal values of respect for others and tolerance. These values are at the heart of my Fondation, which in November will award for the third 1$"0(1!&/9(+*('%3+&.(+:%/;(+#$%+<$"=/1&+Prevention.

With this Prize, the Fondation seeks to honor a person or institution that embodies the struggle for peace.

At the same time, it cooperates with actors in sustainable development. Always keen to encourage local ini-tiatives, in conjunction with our pro-grams for health, access to water, en-vironmental preservation and diversity of cultures, More than ever I would like to place these exceptional women and men in the spotlight.

Traditionally, we all focus on those who ("2+1$"=/1&03+>!&+ &.(+-%('&(0&+ 9/1&$%*+in a war is to prevent it.

Through this Prize, awarded by a jury of distinguished individuals working for peace and development, I want to do them justice, recognizing their unique contribution to the cause of peace.It is time to hear their voices.

I chose the magic of childhood by representing a baby protected not only by a leaf, but also by the spiders that have spun a web around this leaf, transforming it into a sort of cocoon. (...) My concern was to represent something that linked humans, animals and nature.

Peace can be found in this calm, with an innocent baby, propitious Nature. (...) Man is not the only force that can protect humans, nature !"#$ "%$&'(()$ *+&','-.$/"#$ 0"%$ #+1$ 2'1$ %345!6'#1(2$ 7'!+/'$ "&"-' of this.

It is a lesson that has shaped and changed me. It goes against the grain of a very diffuse mentality: one that teaches that when weapons speak and hatred reigns, nothing is possible. Behind this mentality, war deeply scars the minds of people, it corrupts them, it damages and degrades the soul of a nation, it tears from the spirit of man that which characterizes his humanity: the will to hope and the desire for the future. In this sense we say that war is the mother of all poverty.

War is always caused by human decisions. It can therefore be avoided or changed.

Born in Algeria in 1934, Lakhdar Brahimi began his political career at an early age: representative of the Front de Liberation Nationale (FLN) in Southeast Asia, Permanent Representative to the League of Arab States in Cairo, Ambassador to the United Kingdom, the President of Algeria’s Diplomatic Adviser to Egypt and Sudan, Foreign Minister of Algeria, and Assistant Secretary General of the Arab League. In 1993 he became Special Representative of the Secretary Ge-neral of the United Nations Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali, and as such was sent to South Africa, Haiti, Nigeria, Cameroon, Burundi, and Sudan.

The problem is that humanitarian disasters are reported in real time by the media with an emotional impact on public opinion, who demand policy makers take immediate action. In contrast, prevention, with the goal of avoiding a nega-tive event that has not yet happened, has no media coverage that provokes emotion in public opinion, and therefore no pressure on decision makers. Moreover, nobody can prove that without preven-tive action, the crisis would have taken place. Prevention requires vision and courage. With its Prize, the Fondation Chirac wants to attract media attention and public opinion on the efforts of these women and men, institutions, and civil society who have shown true vision and courage.

He helped to lay the institutional founda-tions.

Although this step was followed by set-backs and recent events have underlined the instability of the situation (the sinking of the Cheonan in April 2010, the attack on the island of Yeongpyeong in Decem-ber 2010), progress in 2000 showed that inter-Korean relations can change course, move from confrontation to cooperation, and thus warm up.

It was within the walls of the Quai Branly Museum that on Fri-day, November 5, 2010, President Jacques Chirac and members of the Jury, responsible for honoring individuals working for peace and reconciliation in the world, awarded Prizes to Mr. Mario Giro and Mr. Lakhdar Brahimi.
