Samira Alayan, a researcher at the GeorgEckert Institute, says that Palestinian history textbooks do not deny that Jews have lived in Palestine throughout history.
Answers to these questions will be provided in late 2013 by a project conducted by UNESCO and the GeorgEckert Institute for International Textbook Research.
Between 2003 and 2008 the GeorgEckert Institute worked with the Peace Research Institute in the Middle East to produce a joint textbook of recent Israeli and Palestinian history that could be used by schools on both sides.
