CIP supports human rights, mutual self-determination, and an end to the Israeli Occupation and Palestinian political violence through a negotiated peace process. While CIP does not endorse a particular solution to the conflict, in providing a space for understanding and exploring potential diplomatic resolutions, CIP welcomes all perspectives and levels of expertise.
