The Center for the Study of relations between Jews, Christians and Muslims at the Open University of Israel was founded with the intention of promoting scientific initiatives focusing on the discourse between the monotheist religions. The center's activities and the research conducted by its members contribute to the understand​ing of the relations between people of different faiths in the cultural, social, economic and political context beginning in antiquity and up to our era. Amongst the center's commitments are, upholding events such as seminars and conferences, supporting research groups and outstanding students and the participation in academic publications on interfaith issues. ​
