There are great expectations in New York for the arrival of Giancarlo Elia Valori, President of Sviluppo del Mediterraneo SpA and Sviluppo Lazio SpA who, on Tuesday evening, will officially take the Chair for Peace at the Rabbi Arthur Schneier Center of International Affairs of the Yeshiva University, the prestigious private university of the American Jewish Community.

This significant ceremony will be attended by many influential personalities including the Rabbi Schneier, the President of the Anti-defamation League, Abraham Foxman, the Italian Ambassador to Washington, Gianni Castellaneta, together with representatives of the Jewish political, diplomatic, cultural and financial circles in New York, who have always been particularly interested in what Valori has to say. In fact, in spite of his many demanding institutional commitments, he is able to tirelessly perform his managerial tasks without neglecting his “mission” as “Champion of Peace”. His activity is performed in many sectors of cultural and social life and is developed also with the publication of well-appreciated essays and books. His last book, entitled “Holocaust” and published in Chinese, has sold 5 million copies.

While reading his books - so rich in food for thought - you clearly feel the need to rediscover a new humanism in society, regardless of ethnic groups, with a view to achieving the goal of establishing relations between peoples based on peace, love and solidarity.
