IPCRI is an independent institution, not affiliated to any political party.
In IPCRI we work shoulder-to-shoulder: Palestinians and Israelis, Arabs
and Jews, as well as involved outsiders, committed to create a new reality
of peaceful cooperation.
With us, parity is principle. There are two chairmen, one Israeli and
one Palestinian, just as there are two directors, one Palestinian and
one Israeli. And so on.
