It is a commitment we have enshrined in our Statute and one we pursue with conviction. This is why the olive tree is such an appropriate symbol: in the Genesis tradition it marks the end of the flood and is a sign of renewed alliance together with the rainbow. Beyond its religious meaning, this symbolism highlights a cultural concept that remains relevant today: peace is born from a positive outlook, placing human dignity at the forefront. It is in this spirit that we look to the meaning of this tree, as a tangible testament to the value we attach to peace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Tuesday 25 November, a public ceremony was held in the garden of the \u201cLe Benedettine\u201d
