World Economic Forum

The World Economic Forum is meeting this week in Davos, Switzerland, to discuss “Globalization 4.0,” an effort to “create a world of public-private partnerships that guide the free market to create economic growth, sustainability and social benefits, according to WEF’s founder and executive chairman, Klaus Schwab.” That quote comes from an information email from Climate Home News, a publication designed to inform readers about the urgency of responding to climate change warnings.

In a remarkable interfaith gesture, Hindu statesman Rajan Zed was honored with a siropa (robe of honor) at Sikh Temple of Reno (USA). Temple President Gurmail Singh Uppal presented the siropa to Zed, who is President of Universal Society of Hinduism.

Talking on the occasion, Rajan Zed stressed that all religions should work together for a just and peaceful world. Dialogue would bring us mutual enrichment, he added.
