The Churchill Speech Interactive is a groundbreaking initiative in web learning, based on mwr's Interpreted Dialogue Builder and Player (IDBP).

The project is a collaboration between mwr and the Churchill Family, with support from Cisco Systems.

This first edition of the Churchill Speech Interactive focuses on the renowned 'Iron Curtain' speech of 5th March 1946. The speech, officially titled 'Sinews of Peace', was delivered at Westminster College, Fulton Missouri at the invitation of U.S. President Truman.

The Speech Interactive provides an engaging learning experience through unparalleled interactivity, analytical tools and supporting commentary. A version of this edition is also available in the Clore Education Centre at the Cabinet War Rooms/Churchill Museum.
