The Coexist Foundation is a charitable organization based in London, England, which aims to improve religious relationships between people of Islamic, Jewish, and Christian faiths.[1][2][3] The stated mission of the foundation is to "promote, encourage and support engagement between Jews, Christians and Muslims both individually and through their respective communities through dialogue, education and research."[4] Coexist has a not-for-profit relationship with The Gallup Organization.[5]

One of the Foundation's current projects is "Understanding Islam" a first series of internet learning resources designed to give an accessible but thorough introduction to Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Coexist joined with online education specialists Microbooks and a team of scholars to develop the series.[6]
