Rene Vestri, with local community and faith leaders, and the Director of the Coexist Foundation, James Kidner, inaugurated a new drinking fountain in a park overlooking the Mediterranean, “in the name of peaceful coexistence between faiths”. Among those who attended the celebration were Bono, Cherie Blair and Dame Vivien Duffield, along with a host of local schoolchildren and well-wishers.
It is hoped that this fountain, with its simple, timeless message, will be the first of many in parks and public places around the world. Click here for text of speech.
