We would like to introduce one of the moderators for this year’s Annual Interfaith Forum. In last year’s forum held in Cape Town, Dr. Mohamed Elsanousi of the Network for Religious and Traditional Peacemakers, he led a fishbowl discussion on debt and global governance. In this video clip, he examines corruption and its enduring effects on good governance. We look forward to welcoming him again next month in Salt Lake City, USA. Stay tuned on our social media for more speaker highlights!
