“I receive the award as a Muslim who believes in a future of tolerance”

The Global Hope Coalition honored Makhzoumi Foundation’s Honorary President, HE Deputy Fouad Makhzoumi after choosing him as a hero of the global campaign against violent extremism and intolerance in 2018, in conjunction with the opening of the UN General Assembly in New York.
