"A basic essential to the permanent peace is a decent standard of living." F.D.Roosevelt
 

"Peace is a daily, a weekly, a monthly process, gradually changing opinions, slowly eroding old barriers, quietly building new structures."                              J.F.Kennedy

 

“It should never be forgotten that peace resides ultimately not in the hands of governments, but in the hands of the people. For unless peace can be made real to men, women and children of the Middle East, the best efforts of negotiators will come to naught.”  
“ We aim to build a better future under peace: to change the pattern of life for our people from despair and hopelessness to honor and dignity. We want all voices to be heard in shaping a new regional order.”  
King Hussein

Strategic Alliances

A number of United States Universities endorsed and supported the mission and objectives of the University project to advance opportunity for prosperity and progress through education. The belief that education can make a significant contribution not only to the development of the Middle East but also to the long term stability and peace of the region has attracted American prestigious universities.

Indiana University and a consortium of major mid-western schools including Purdue, Wisconsin, Notre Dame, Maine, Ohio State, Illinois, Minnesota, Iowa, Louisville, University of Kentucky etc. have agreed to collaborate with the AUP/AUJ and develop its curricula. 

The Curriculum for each Program will be developed by its key initial Faculty with the advice of its Advisory Committee and in collaboration with a sister American University. Different programs at the Universities of Indiana, Louisville, Purdue, Notre Dame, Wisconsin, and Maine... have already committed themselves to participate in curriculum.

Congressional Support for the AUP and its mission was strong and committed since inception. The Honorable Lee Hamilton wrote letters of support applauding the merits of its mission to Middle East Peace, and recommending to Palestine to endorse and host the AUP.

Members of Department of State graciously provided counsel, mentoring and guidance and consistently provided to help bridge any gaps and encourage serious implementation; all in dedication to serve the cause of Middle East Peace.
