Former US Vice-President Gore, who served under President Clinton for eight years, will head a list of top speakers at this year’s forum under the title, A New Beginning. Joining Gore at the conference will be Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984 for his non-violent efforts to discontinue apartheid in South Africa.

The charismatic clergyman has since spoken out for better awareness of HIV/Aids and continues to be a spokesman for the world on many humanitarian and political issues.
