MUMBAI – The Billionaires for Peace Conclave (BFP) and the Sood Charity Foundation have signed a landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), marking a significant milestone in the union of cultural influence and humanitarian purpose. The agreement, formalised at the third edition of the BFP conclave held on May 21, 2026 at the Grand Hyatt Mumbai, pledges Bollywood actor and philanthropist Sonu Sood’s active support toward the I Am Peacekeeper Movement’s expansive vision of peace, humanitarian work, and social impact.
Speaking on the occasion, Sonu Sood said: “I think it’s an amazing platform. The people here are the best in the world. They are winners and achievers. And when they come to this platform, it feels amazing that there are like-minded people who are there to help society.”
A Stage Set by Global Leaders
The conclave was inaugurated by the 14th President of India Shri Ram Nath Kovind as Chief Guest, alongside Governor of Maharashtra Shri Jishnu Dev Varma and RSS Member Shri Suresh Bhaiyaji Joshi as Guests of Honour. Nobel Peace Laureates Mohan Munasinghe, Kailash Satyarthi, Houcine Abassi, and Grigorii Pelman also shared the stage, alongside a virtual address by President of Timor-Leste and Nobel Peace Laureate Jose Manuel Ramos-Horta.
