Representatives of Israel, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates and Morocco attended the event, along with city, World Games and Olympic officials.
Representatives of four Middle Eastern nations joined to dedicate a spot to plant a "Peace Tree" in Marconi Park in Birmingham. Officials from four Middle East countries who are in Birmingham for the World Games today gathered Thursday morning to dedicate a site to plant a “Peace Tree” in Marconi Park.
The tree will be a celebration of the Abraham Accords and in honor of the World Games today, officials said. Because of the July heat, the tree will be planted later in the fall when temperatures are cooler. “Just as history is being made here, in Birmingham through these World Games, today, we are experiencing another historical moment,’’ said Kathy Boswell, executive vice president of community and volunteer engagement for the World Games. “We will plant a tree to recognize the importance of how planting values of listening, serving, respect, collaboration, hope, and faith in the world can grow to become a place where we can live in peace.
