Seems like a very interesting organization... AFIDORA may be on the border of what I really need for the research project but I think it is a too novel and important group to leave out... besides I am operating with 100s of anti-racist/anti-anti-Semitic/anti-xenophobic groups in France, it is nice with something a bit different ;o) So thanks again...

I'd be glad to help if I can. I left AFIDORA in September 2006 after 4 years there, 4 years during which I learnt a lot every single day. I hope AFIDORA is the right organization for you to talk to, as it focuses on analyzing the geopolitics of the Middle East through a factual, not geopolitical, angle. So no real direct connections with xenophobia in France. To briefly answer your questions: - Contact details: I forwarded your message to Jean-Luc, Steve and Karim who should write to you shortly. - number of members or volunteers: I don't know anymore, but I'd say between 10 and 25 active members + something like 100 'friends' of AFIDORA. - Objectives and aims: To foster debate using facts and analysis rather than passion and ideology. AFIDORA publishes balanced research articles on the Middle East and organize top-notch events with the very best available speakers. - Impact and popularity: very honourable brand recognition in Paris. You're welcome, Jeremy Hello Maria,

Thank you very much for your kind message. I’d be glad to help if I can. I left AFIDORA in September 2006 after 4 years there, 4 years during which I learnt a lot every single day.

I hope AFIDORA is the right organization for you to talk to, as it focuses on analyzing the geopolitics of the Middle East through a factual, not geopolitical, angle. So no real direct connections with xenophobia in France.

To briefly answer your questions:
- Contact details: I forwarded your message to Jean-Luc, Steve and Karim who should write to you shortly.
- number of members or volunteers: I don’t know anymore, but I’d say between 10 and 25 active members + something like 100 ‘friends’ of AFIDORA.
- Objectives and aims: To foster debate using facts and analysis rather than passion and ideology. AFIDORA publishes balanced research articles on the Middle East and organize top-notch events with the very best available speakers.
- Impact and popularity: very honourable brand recognition in Paris.

You’re welcome,
Jeremy

Thus, I have stumbled across a link to AFIDORA but the website appears not to be accessible!? So I googled a bit and found a few of your articles on AFIDORA - and I was hoping that maybe you could help me with a bit of information or maybe you would know when the webiste will be up and running again - because the short piece on AFIDORA at wikipedia is obviously not going to be of any use... I would love to know things such as contact details for AFIDORA, number of members or volunteers, objectives and aims for the think tank, impact and popularity...
