BENGALURU: Dr Corinne Kumar, founder of World Courts of Women, has expressed concern over rising armed conflicts and called for a new model to create an inclusive notion of development.
Addressing a symposium ‘Universal Respect for Human Dignity: The Great Path to Peace’, based on the 2016 peace proposal by Soka Gakkai International (SGI) President Daisaku Ikeda, at IIM-B here on Friday, she said, “We live in violent times. Think of the Iraq wars. These are times that focus on the rights of the privileged and the powerful and they are destroying the diversity of the world.”
Regarding Dr Ikeda she said that he stresses on the need for dialogue with other concepts of power and religious institutions. Since 1983 Ikeda has been formulating a peace proposal that also provides solutions. The symposium was organised by the SGI’s Indian affiliate Bharat Soka Gakkai.
