The Harry S. Truman Research Institute for the Advancement of Peace

[3] Today, the institute operates in two areas in relation to peace and conflict resolution: activities in the academic sphere and activities in the public sphere, serving as a platform for academic and public discourse and action in peace and conflict resolution.

[1][7] The institute has a doctoral and post-doctoral scholarship program, supports research projects conducted by senior researchers in Israel and abroad, as well as symposiums, workshops and meetings between individuals from a wide range of backgrounds, including scholars, statespersons, diplomats, students, journalists and activists.

[27] Also in 2020, the institute held events analyzing the assassination of Qasem Soleimani, how COVID-19 might influence the conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, the annexation plan of the Jordan Valley and more.

In addition, the Institute runs a special scholarship program for doctoral and post-doctoral students whose research deals with the topic of peace and conflict resolution.

[28] Several noteworthy figures served as the Chair of the Truman Institute's Board of Trustees, such as American ambassadors to Israel William Brown (who held the position for 25 years) and Samuel Lewis, American diplomat Max Kampelman, former Israeli ambassador to the United States Moshe Arad and former Israeli minister and politician Dan Meridor (who currently holds the position).
