In his keynote address, President Khatami praised UNESCO’s contribution to dialogue among civilizations, highlighting UNESCO’s Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage (adopted in 2003), its Universal Declaration on Cultural Diversity (adopted in 2001), the preparation of a convention on cultural diversity, and ongoing work on the ethics of science.

President Khatami launched the idea of creating a non-governmental organization to promote dialogue among civilizations and said he would welcome suggestions and proposals for this project.
