Reports


IMPACT-SE (formerly CMIP) focuses on the research of school textbooks, teachers' guides, and syllabi used worldwide--particularly in the Middle East--to find out whether the younger generations are being educated to accept "the others," i.e. their neighbors, the minorities in their midst, and even their enemies, and to solve conflicts with them through negotiation and compromise, rather than being incited to rejection, hatred and violence.

IMPACT-SE has published a dozen reports to-date on: Egypt, Iran, Israel, the Palestinian Authority, Saudi Arabia, and Syria. All reports are written according to IMPACT-SE's unique methodology.
