A New Bridge Between Faiths: Salvator Mundi Global and The Abrahamic Movement Announce Strategic Cooperation
Two organizations built on dialogue and coexistence formalize a partnership aimed at turning interfaith conversation into concrete regional initiatives — from peacebuilding to youth engagement.
Salvator Mundi Global has announced a new strategic cooperation with The Abrahamic Movement, a grassroots organization dedicated to building bridges between faiths, communities, and nations. The partnership was unveiled this week through Salvator Mundi Global’s publishing arm, Salvator Mundi Times, with both sides framing it as a step toward converting interfaith dialogue into lasting, practical relationships.
In its announcement, Salvator Mundi Global said many of today’s most pressing challenges “cannot be addressed by governments, businesses, religions, institutions, or communities acting in isolation,” and that progress instead begins when people are willing to cross traditional boundaries and build trust across them. The organization described the cooperation as an opportunity to explore joint initiatives spanning interfaith and intercultural dialogue, peacebuilding, education, ethical leadership, youth engagement, minority communities, public diplomacy, entrepreneurship, and economic cooperation.
Central to the new partnership is Tom Wegner, Co-Founder and CEO of The Abrahamic Movement. Wegner is an Israeli strategic consultant, author, and longtime advocate for Israeli-Arab dialogue, who has previously served as spokesperson for former Prime Minister Ehud Barak, media consultant to former Defense Minister Amir Peretz, and spokesperson for the Peres Center for Peace under Shimon Peres. He currently leads the Middle East Center, a platform he founded in early 2024 to foster direct dialogue between nations across the region, and is CEO of the communications firm Wegner – Strategy and Communications.
“We are ready to turn dialogue into real, tangible impact across the region.” — Tom Wegner, Co-Founder & CEO, The Abrahamic Movement
The cooperation also brings in Nabil Saad, Founder and CEO of The Abrahamic Movement’s Druze Branch, whose work centers on peace, partnership, and engagement with Druze communities across the region. Salvator Mundi Global noted that the agreement opens the door to connecting The Abrahamic Movement with its own Global Council for Interfaith, as well as its broader network of Global Councils and Country Representations.
Salvator Mundi Global described its ambition in the partnership plainly: dialogue should lead to relationships, relationships should lead to cooperation, and cooperation should lead to tangible impact. The organization added that, at a time of rising polarization and geopolitical division, building bridges across religious, cultural, and national lines is “not simply desirable — it is essential.”
Wegner, responding to the announcement, called the partnership an honor and said he and his teams were prepared to begin translating shared values into action alongside Salvator Mundi Global’s network. Neither organization detailed a timeline for specific joint programs, though both signaled that further initiatives are expected to follow in the coming months.
The announcement adds to a growing list of cross-sector partnerships Salvator Mundi Global has pursued through its councils and country representations, part of a broader push by the organization to position dialogue-based diplomacy as a practical tool for regional cooperation rather than a purely symbolic exercise. For The Abrahamic Movement, the cooperation extends a network built over recent years around shared Abrahamic identity, including forums that bring together religious leaders, businesspeople, and grassroots community groups from across the Middle East.
