The Aladdin Project / Projet Aladin Details
Project Aladdin is an independent, international non-governmental organization based in Paris and launched under the patronage of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in March 2009. It has since been supported by more than 1,000 intellectuals, academics and public figures from over 50 countries in the Middle East, Africa, Europe and North America. Project Aladdin's goal is to promote greater mutual knowledge among peoples of different cultures and religions, particularly Jews and Muslims, in order to bring about changes in attitudes and perceptions and develop a culture of peace and tolerance. Such changes will ultimately come about through a long-term strategy focusing on education and diffusion of knowledge. To meet the challenges of overcoming deeply-imbedded misperceptions and mutual mistrust in a politically-charged environment, we have developed a strategy that combines concrete, measurable educational and cultural projects (translations, syllabus development, distance-learning courses, educator training, summer school programs...) with public events (conferences, exhibitions, visits to memorial sites). An international network of academics, civil society activists and educators provides the organization with essential feedback on the impact of projects. The twenty personalities on the Board of Project Aladdin are from different countries, cultures and religions, and are united in the belief that the power of knowledge and education and the primacy of history and moral values can vanquish the chasms created by ignorance, prejudice, hate and competing memories. A number of world leaders and international bodies, such as the European Union, have also declared their backing for the project.The unprecedented level of support it has received from Muslims and non-Muslims alike provides Aladdin with an opportunity to contribute to conflict resolution, with particular focus on the younger generations.
