Abdurrahman Wahid (1940-2009) served between 1999 and 2001 as the first democratically elected President of Indonesia. Advocate of a liberal, reforming Islam, he was throughout his career a champion of peace and interfaith dialogue, calling for people of all religions to work together against hatred and extremism. Daisaku Ikeda (1928-) is President of Soka Gakkai International, a Buddhist network that actively promotes peace, culture and education, whose members come from over 190 countries worldwide. He is the author of more than 100 books on Buddhist themes, and received the United Nations Peace Award in 1983.
