The Nobel Peace Prize Forum (the Forum) is one of three programs officially associated with the Norwegian Nobel Institute. Focused on initiating high-level dialogues to advance pressing international peace issues, the Forum will conduct two dialogue programs: one focused on advancing global nuclear security architecture and second on early warning systems and approaches for violent conflict. Each dialogue will engage stakeholders and initiate processes of sustained commitment. Additionally, the dialogues will produce a number of key agreement points for greater dissemination. The Nobel Peace Prize forum has unique convening power given its relationship to the Norwegian Nobel Institute. The Forum is partnering with the Foreign Policy Association to further enhance the projects convening and communications ability. The program of Track II dialogue complements the Corporation’s initiatives on Nuclear Security and Peacebuilding in Africa.
