Since 2014 The Swedish Lunch provides a multi-sector forum to promote Swedish values of sustainability, equality, innovation and inclusive growth.
Theme for 2024: Peace and Security
A note from the Hosts: The urgency of fostering global peace resonates more profoundly than ever before. In a world facing multifaceted challenges, the significance of peace cannot be overstated. Therefore the main theme of The Swedish Lunch 2024 is peace. In collaboration with SIPRI (Stockholm International Peace Research Institute), serves as a powerful reminder that peace is not merely an aspiration but an indispensable prerequisite for sustainable development and shared prosperity.
Peace is not a passive state; it is an active pursuit that requires collective commitment and continuous efforts. The World Economic Forum in Davos, provides an ideal platform for leaders, visionaries, and changemakers to come together, transcend boundaries, and engage in meaningful conversations that can shape the future of our interconnected world.
Davos, with its legacy of fostering open dialogue and innovative solutions, is a crucible where ideas transform into actions. The lessons learned and alliances forged in Davos can serve as a catalyst for positive change on a global scale.
In collaboration with SIPRI, a renowned institution dedicated to promoting peace and understanding, our peace event aims to inspire collective action. By shedding light on the intricate interplay through the so called Polycrises we will explore different avenues through our panels. We hope to ignite a spark that will illuminate the path towards a more harmonious and equitable world.
Let us seize this moment in Davos to transcend boundaries, challenge assumptions, and commit to a shared vision of peace.
