ÉVIAN, France, June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As heads of government and top diplomats arrived at this week's G7 Leaders' Summit in Évian-les-Bains, they are entering intense policy discussions around the Middle East crisis with a groundbreaking blueprint in hand: fresh multilateral funding commitments and a set of comprehensive recommendations jointly developed by 150 Israeli and Palestinian civil society leaders.
The policy framework, summarized in "The Paris Call 2026," and the accompanying funding surge are the direct results of a day-long pre-Summit conference convened on Friday by French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot. The gathering brought top diplomats on their way to the G7 from over a dozen nations face-to-face with on-the-ground peacebuilders. It was organized in partnership with the Alliance for Middle East Peace (ALLMEP), as well as Les Guerrières de la Paix and Principles for Peace.
