Peace prize to Jordan prince
National Catholic Reporter, March 7, 2008
The Tokyo-based Niwano Peace Foundation has awarded its 2008 prize for religious contributions to peace to Jordanian Prince El Hassan bin Talal, a chief adviser to the late King Hussein of Jordan.
Hassan, 60, has long been active in interreligious dialogue and epitomizes the moderate voice of Islam, the Niwano foundation said in a news release. "He has been a bridge-builder across existing political and religious divides," it said.
