The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is the second-largest intergovernmental organization after the United Nations, with a membership of 57 states spread over four continents. Established in 1969, its primary objective is to safeguard and protect the interests of the Muslim world in the spirit of promoting international peace and harmony among various peoples of the world. The OIC serves as a collective voice for the Muslim world, aiming to enhance and consolidate economic, social, cultural, and scientific cooperation among its member states. It also strives to protect the true image of Islam, to combat Islamophobia, and to engage in dialogue with other civilizations and cultures.
The OIC plays a significant role in addressing various global issues, including peace and security, economic development, human rights, and humanitarian aid. Its activities often involve mediating disputes, advocating for the rights of Muslim communities, and coordinating efforts on matters of common interest. Given its mission, the OIC’s stances on issues related to Israel and the broader Middle East are frequently observed. While not directly linked to specific Jewish-Azerbaijani community matters, the OIC's broader policies and resolutions can influence the regional political landscape.
