  • Backgrounder Global Centre for Pluralism Mission
    Global Centre for Pluralism: Backgrounder Global Centre for Pluralism Mission: The Global Centre for Pluralism serves as a global platform for comparative analysis, education and dialogue about the choices and actions that advance and sustain pluralism. Vision: The Centre’s vision is a world where human differences are valued and diverse societies thrive. The Global Centre for Pluralism is an independent, charitable organization created to advance positive responses to the challenge of living peacefully and productively together in diverse societies. Why Canada Founded in Ottawa by His Highness the Aga Khan in partnership with the Government of Canada, the Centre takes inspiration from Canada’s experience. Respect for diversity has developed into a defining characteristic of Canada and a core element of the country’s identity. Although still a work in progress, Canada is a global leader in the way it has valued and managed its diverse multi-ethnic, multicultural fabric. The Centre’s headquarters will be a platform for analysing and sharing Canada’s ongoing pluralism journey with the world. His Highness the Aga Khan His Highness the Aga Khan is the 49th hereditary Imam (Spiritual Leader) of the Shia Imami Ismaili Muslims. For His Highness the Aga Khan, one manifestation of his hereditary responsibilities has been a deep engagement with development for almost 60 years. Ties with Canada: His Highness has long been interested in Canada’s experience of pluralism. His close ties with Canada go back almost four decades to the 1970s when many thousands of Asian refugees expelled from Uganda, including many Ismailis, were welcomed into Canadian society.

  • Acceptance Speech by Professor Omar M. Yaghi
    Omar Yaghi’s Speech for 2017 Albert Einstein Science Award I want to thank the principals of the World Cultural Council, organizers of the Einstein World Award of Science Prize, and the generous hospitality of our hosts, Leiden University’s executive body, faculty, staff, and students. Please allow me to express my deepest appreciation to Lily Hernandez for her thoughtfulness and dedication to help bring all this together. I am deeply honored to join the ranks of distinguished scholars who were awarded this prize in years past. Ladies and Gentlemen, allow me to make the following brief remarks: As a child born to a refugee family, I firmly believe that each one of us is blessed with having an opportunity, a chance, a probability, to succeed in our chosen endeavor. I believe we are born with this opportunity and that we as individuals can work towards capturing it and, if we make the right decisions, we can grow and thrive. In other words, our ability to transform ourselves lies within us. I sincerely believe that this opportunity and the chance to succeed live in all of us. It is part of our DNA no matter who we are and where we come from. In my remarks here today, I wish to say something to those who may face at some point slim odds of success in their life, those who start at the lower rungs of the ladder, and those who experience difficulty and may feel sidelined by life’s twists and turns. I stand before you as a product of those slim odds and of a life of hardship such odds entail.
