Iliana Iotova is representing Bulgaria at the ninth Paris Peace Forum, which takes place on Tuesday, November 10, in the French capital, according to a statement from the presidential press secretariat.

The forum, now in its ninth year, brings together more than 350 heads of state and government, along with representatives from international organisations, non-governmental organisations and the business community. Under the theme “From Sovereignty to Cooperation”, this year’s event aims to highlight the importance of international collaboration in resolving conflicts and tackling issues related to development, climate change and advanced technologies.

A key part of the programme is the Child Summit, where Iotova will deliver an address. The summit seeks to place children’s well-being and protection at the centre of the global development agenda, especially at a time when peace faces multiple threats.

Iotova’s participation follows an invitation from French President Emmanuel Macron.
