The PreneurLab and the Edward M Kennedy Center will jointly organise a programme 'Peace Summit-5' on November 16 to mark the International Day for Tolerance. 

The aim of the summit is to create a platform for the country's professionals, policymakers, researchers, law enforcers, and youths to discuss about internet-based hatred offences and find out their solution. 

Focusing on youth the experts in the summit will discuss different issues, including extremism, diversity and online security.

To raise virtues like tolerance, diversity, and peace among the youth, a competition will also be organised on the day where participants can display their photographic or video contents on the issues. The three top winners of the competition will be rewarded, says a press release.  

The interested participants can get registered with the event through uploading their contents on Facebook or Instagram using hashtag with 'PeaceSummit' or directly submitting their contents to https://peace.digital/challenge, an online link.
