Creative Community for Peace (CCFP) is a front for the right-wing pro-Israel lobby group StandWithUs (SWU), that has close ties to the Israeli Foreign Ministry.
The membership of its board overlaps with SWU, it has shared an office with the same organisation, is a legally registered trading name of SWU (along with 'Israel Emergency Network' or 'Israel Emergency Alliance') and has received donations through SWU.
It works to counter the cultural boycott of Israel and - despite its own political allegiances - claims 'music and the arts should not be politicized'.[1]
