His Highness Aga Khan IV has emerged as a public intellectual advocating for pluralism as a sign of courage and humility. He has spoken repeatedly on the dire need for a pluralist ethic against the “clash of civilizations” and has committed himself to ideals of inclusion, belonging, and helping the world understand pluralism better. In this endeavour he has created partnerships with countries like Canada, to foster more spaces for dialogue and (re)thinking the application of pluralism. It comes as no surprise that Canada serves as a fitting partner, whose own history with diversity leading to the pivotal decision to implement a multicultural policy is indicative of the pluralistic ethos that has emerged as an integral component of Canadian identity.
