Noé Petitjean founded “Our Shared Difference” (OSD), an intercultural and interfaith project gathering youth from different cultural backgrounds to address the challenges of refugee integration in Europe. OSD brings together young people from different cultural, religious and economic backgrounds to visit religious sites and learn about each other’s faiths. One of Noé’s sources of inspiration for the OSD project was the UNESCO conference “Reinventing Peace.” Noé strongly believes that diversity is a true force for positive change. He has spread this vision by bringing teenagers to the European Parliament and showing them the important and powerful role diversity plays in Europe. He has dedicated himself to gathering people from different cultures and making diversity a powerful source of creativity and positive change for the world
