- Ability to work with existing specialized glossary, and to expand this when necessary with research in your language
- Ability to collaborate within a team or a project community, desire to learn and to improve
Hard requirements
- Proactive approach, quality-focused mindset

Mission Statement
We want to help everyone to understand what the doctrine of Political Islam means for the ideals of our cultures. We are against child marriage, slavery, the abuse of women, and violence against people with other beliefs. We want to ensure that future generations will have the opportunity to live their lives freely, to the fullest, in harmony and respect for one another. Now, knowing the doctrine and tactics of Political Islam, we can help prevent its expansion with the intent of avoiding violence and human suffering. We are looking for volunteers, critical thinkers who value their culture and freedoms and who want to work with others around the world. We need people who share our vision, who are willing to educate themselves on Political Islam using the CSPII Methodology, and who can dedicate time for our work on a regular basis.
Description
The CSPII (Center for the Study of Political Islam International) is an independent non-profit research and educational organization. Our concern is with the ideological doctrine of Islam that relates to Kafirs (non-Muslims), and, therefore, is political. We define this part of the doctrine as "Political Islam".
We analyze Islamic primary doctrine, and its continuous, harmful political impact on individuals and governments. We use scientific methods, rational thought and fact-based reasoning to show how the influence of Political Islam exponentially spreads within non-Islamic countries, creating the economic, legal and sociocultural foundation to turn them into Islamic ones.
CSPII informs and educates about the existential threat Political Islam poses to our civilizations with the aim to peacefully prevent its domination over people’s lives.
