A lecture was given by the former President of South Africa, Frederick William de Klerk, former President of Poland Lech Walesa and Nobel laureate Kailash Satyarthi, the President of Kailash Satyarthi Children’s Foundation. It was attended by a number of ministers, senior officials, ambassadors, media persons, journalists, and academics.
