Program: The International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT) and ITEP have partnered to examine education issues across Muslim communities. This study of over 25,000 participants from fifteen countries explores how secondary school and university students, parents, teachers, and administrators value skills such as empathy, forgiveness, moral reasoning, and community-mindedness. Publicly available for the first time, the research team will present the study’s results and lead a discussion on the implications of this important exploration for advancing education in Muslim societies.
