Copyright 2005, IUHEI, CH - Geneva ISBN 2-8288-0114-4 2 Foreword The Graduate Institute of International Studies created the PSIO in 1994 to facilitate collaboration between the international and academic communities in Geneva and worldwide. It is both a research program and a forum to stimulate discussions between academics and policy makers within the environment of the Graduate Institute in Geneva. For ten years, the PSIO has been steadily expanding and diversifying its activities. In September 2005, it launched, with the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs, Political Division IV (DFA-PD IV) the project "Religion and Politics: Initiatives and Applied Research", aimed at making an effective contribution to transforming conflicts in which religious and political factors are deeply interconnected and developing a platform of knowledge and expertise in this field. Since then, the project is implemented through both operational and research activities, touching upon a variety of topics and situations worldwide. Within the activities of the project, the initiative "Towards cooperation in removing unjustified obstacles for Islamic charities" (also known as the Montreux Initiative) was launched in 2005.
