Jacques Chirac has always pursued his political ambition of fostering an international culture of mutual respect, forging ties between worlds and building a more harmonious global society. 

 

Throughout his political life, he worked to ensure that peace prevailed over the forces of war, solidarity over indifference, sharing over selfish considerations and responsibility over fatalism. Through the Fondation Chirac, he still pursues his goal of acting in the service of peace. With the founding members of his Fondation, Jacques Chirac elected four areas of actions:

 

• access to medication

• access to fresh water, specifically in rural areas

• against deforestation and desertification

• safeguarding threatened languages and cultures

 

Depending on the issue, it will support existing initiatives, advocate causes or participate in testing of promising projects, all with the aim of contributing to the development of an effective system for regulating globalization and reinventing world governance.
