The North-South Forum 2004 focused on the UN Millennium Development Goals. In 2006 the thematic focus of the event will be Peacebuilding and Conflict Management. During this event we will be able to enjoy distinguished speakers like Nobel laureates Prime Minister Dr. José Ramos-Horta from East-Timor, Ms. Rigoberta Menchú from Guatemala and Prof. Wangari Mathaai from Kenya.

 

The main event will focus on giving FK Norway and our partners the opportunity to show the Norwegian society and the international community what we do, what is our role and while doing so meet some of their important representatives. We will also gain fruitful professional and inspirational input that will re-energise the partners of FK Norway participating in the International Advisory Council Meeting.
