About
CMIP

|
The Institute for Monitoring Peace and Cultural Tolerance in School Education--formerly
referred to as the Center for Monitoring the Impact of Peace (CMIP)--is
a non-profit, non-political international NGO founded in 1998. It is dedicated
to fostering peaceful relations
between
peoples
and
nations
by
helping
them accept the "Other" and reject violence as a means
of resolving conflicts. To this end, it examines school curricula worldwide,
especially throughout the Middle East, to determine whether the material
conforms to international standards, and to analyze what is being taught
with regard to recognition and acceptance of the "Other."
CMIP is run by a group of volunteers in the Middle East and Europe.
It is governed by a General Assembly, an Executive Board and an International
Advisory Board. CMIP Europe (Paris) was instrumental
in publishing "La démocratie en danger. L'enseignement
scolaire saoudien. Préface d'Antoine Sfeir" ("Democracy
in Danger: Saudi curriculum. Forward by Antoine Sfeir.")
