About Us

The primary mission of the Palestinian American Research Center (PARC) is to improve scholarship about Palestinian affairs, expand the pool of experts knowledgeable about the Palestinians, and strengthen linkages between American and Palestinian research institutions and scholars. Newly established in 1998, PARC represents a consortium of U.S. colleges and universities, non-profit organizations and individual members. It has a permanent presence in Jerusalem as well as a U.S. office located at Randolph-Macon College in Virginia.
