** Tribute to a visionary: the legacy of Prince Karim Aga Khan IV **
On November 14, 2023, Prince Karim al-Hussaini Aga Khan IV left this world, leaving behind a radiant inheritance of compassion and commitment. At the head of AGA Khan Development Network, he worked for almost 70 years for sustainable development, transforming millions of lives through education, health and economic initiatives in several regions of the globe.
His vision of intercultural and interreligious dialogue also played a crucial role in establishing bridges between communities. Leader of tolerance, he established the Global Center for Pluralism, advocating harmony in times marked by polarization. By passing the torch to his son, Prince Rahim al-Hussaini, the Ismaelian community turns to a future in the values of his father, while the world is inspired by his requirement of peace and social justice. Faced with contemporary challenges, the heritage of Prince Karim reminds us that a sincere commitment can cause a positive and lasting change.
