Mr Victor GREZES, France, Development Manager of Coexister

Born in Vichy-France, Victor Grezes travelled abroad for the first time when he was 16.

After his one-year experience in Africa, Victor seized the opportunity to represent French high school and college students in the main EU organizations, and all across Europe. In the process, this young man saw how cross-cultural issues are a major component of international exchanges and conflicts. In 2011, Victor joined ‘Coexister’ (the French interfaith youth movement) and participated in 2013/2014 in the InterFaith Tour project (a one year travel around the world to encounter and monitor interfaith initiatives – along with a team of 4 other youngsters from different faith - interfaithtour.com). Today, Victor is 23 years old and shares his time between his studies in International Affairs at Sorbonne University in Paris, and his position as Development Manager of Coexister.
