The Canadian Institute for Mediterranean Studies (CIMS\/ICEM) has celebrated over 25 years of informing and educating the public about the Mediterranean world through an engaging program of public events.<\/strong><\/p>\n CIMS hosts a wide variety of lectures by experts in their field on Mediterranean archaeology, history and culture, including art, theater and technology. We organize national conferences, round table discussions and symposia as well as musical evenings and film screenings. CIMS supports a number of archaeological initiatives including the sponsorship of students on excavations.<\/strong><\/p>\n CIMS enjoys the support of the University of Toronto, York University, Carleton University and the University of Ottawa for its activities. We collaborate closely with diplomatic missions in Ottawa and Toronto and like-minded organizations such as the Archaeological Institute of America, the Parnassos Hellenic Cultural Society and the Canadian Institute in Greece. CIMS explores the Mediterranean past and its place in the present without championing any particular political or religious agenda. We examine the cultures and societies of the Mediterranean in a broad inclusive manner conscious of the geographic and economic links that have bound the region together and of the achievements of individual peoples and countries.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”62″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Symbolizing the merger of the two organizations, the Institute\u2019s logo is derived from the Phoenician seal used by the former Society for Mediterranean Studies, set on a stylized seascape from the original logo of the former Canadian Mediterranean Institute.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”81″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Scripta Mediterranea was the refereed journal published by the Canadian Institute for Mediterranean Studies.
