Task Force for Web Page Material on Conflict in the Middle East

The MTA web page entitled “Resources on the Conflict in the Middle East” will be reviewed by a task force formed to complete this process. This task force will ensure that the resources will be a balance of history, curriculum, visual arts and film materials representing both the Palestinian and Jewish/Israeli perspectives. This process does not preclude the inclusion of neutral resources.

All existing and newly added materials will be meticulously reviewed to ensure they do not promote hate against a protected class or deny the self-determination of any protected class.

The task force will present to the Board a summary detailing.

This approach ensures transparency, equity and a commitment to balanced and inclusive educational materials. The task force will consult with the NEA Center for International Relations and, through them, Educational International.
